On the other Kremer is usefull and nice. There used to be a few other interesting sources of "archaic" media in Munich but they are the only that has survived and even thrived. In my area and down the road to the University and Academy of Art there used to be quite a few traders but they have all gone into the history books--- just as I unfortunately discoved this week, one of the last traditional photo shops (Schwarz & Cie). In addition to the pigments and chemicals Kremer also has a wonderfull series of brushes. I use, for example, one of his goat hair brushes for dry mounting and one of his metal brushes for cleaning mastik and tubular tire mounting..... speaking of tires.. he's also a good source for high quality latex milk.. > hand, many products manufactured by Dow seems to be available in drum > quantities only, and there are usually no company who's willing to sell > Dow compounds in smaller quantity. Have you tried giving Kremer a call. He has on offer many more chemicals and products than those listed in the catalogue--- including many quite photography related--- and is often willing to source things as needed--- at least here in Germany. -- -- Edward C.
