Archival Semi Gloss Papers:

A new class of acid and lignen free semi gloss resin coated papers for the discerning photographer. The papers are more expensive than their non-archival equivalents and have stronger surfaces. Some, like Moab's fabulous Colorado mimic the classic air dried black and white papers. It should be noted that almost all other resin-coated papers contain acid and subject to yellowing. Light based fade tests do not take this into account.
