Digital BW, The Print

TruVue is etched, at least according to the supplier I use.  See here:

Denglas was made under license from Schott in Germany.  You made find other
Schott products available in the US.  Here’s a bit of blurb from the same UK
supplier:

FYI for people in the UK these guys are great.  Simply tell them you’re a
photographer who frames your own work (so that they don’t feel like they’re
cutting out their trade suppliers).  Great service.

The pricing of TrueVue acrylic is completely stupid here in the UK.

Subject: [Digital BW] Print glazing -- anti-reflective

 
 
 

Is anyone using anti-reflective glazing?  It looks like Tru Vue has a corner
on the market these days.  Denglas appears to be out of business.

(I'm not interested in an etched anti-reflective approach that lowers
contrast and sharpness.)

http://www.williamstownart.org/GlazingCompare.pdf looks like the best
summary of glazing materials and characteristics.

I personally get frustrated with reflections, the static of acrylic, and the
breakage of glass.  It's looking like  Tru VueR OPTIUMR AcrylicT and OPTIUMR
Museum AcrylicT are the top products that might satisfy my with list,
although I have not found information on prices or availability other than
through retail framing outfits.  If is is tough enough to not get wrecked
easily, I might be willing to pay quite a bit more for it.

Does anyone know a good source for Tru Vue Optium Acrylic?

Thanks.

Paul
