paper base

Eric,

I have used the Sprint End Run Brightener from time to time over the 
years. I have a bottle on the shelf.  Unfortunately, I don't like 
that treatment on Record Rapid.  It seems to conflict with the warm 
image tone of the image.

Thanks for the suggestion and information.

John
