Good to know, Thanks!
I read something about Shipley's being aquired by a chemical, paint and coatings company, Rohm and Haas.

Though 10x10 was though to get a good spin coat. I initally etched with feric chloride then switched to ammonium persulfate because it was cleaner and I had snagged a free 25lb bucket of the persulfate from our local pcb shop.

I had to mark all my art work masters in big letters "THIS SIDE TOWARDS LENSE" to be sure in the end the film emulsion ended up against the board to reduce parallex trace thinning.

I found their website with some genereal information about some different products they offer, mainly to industry for commercial production of PCBs and semiconductor devices I think. not sure whether they are available through any US distributors in smaller quantities but I would think probably they can be found somewhere...
