How to use

Choose a sheet and work on a flat, stable surface. Tape the edges if you require minimal edge buckling for wetter techniques. Apply light washes first and allow drying between layers to prevent overworking. For heavier wet-on-wet techniques, test the amount of water on a spare sheet to avoid excessive cockling. Sheets can be removed from the pad for framing, scanning or scanning after fully drying.

Usage recommendations

Use moderate amounts of water and allow sufficient drying time between layers. For archival results, mount finished work on a rigid backing or frame under glass to reduce exposure to humidity and handling.
