Hi,

I just come out of my darkroom (i.e. my kitchen). Today I got a
remainder of glossy Ilford RC paper in gradtaion 2 and 4. Usually I'm
using foma baryt paper, gradation normal. I already found the
,,normal'' foma paper quite hard, but the Ilford 2 seems to be as
steep as the ,,normal'' foma.

Now my question: Does anyone know if RC paper is steeper than baryt?

I'm a bit confused...

Cheers, Peter N.
