Platinum printing

Does anyone know of a company who makes a platinum(or similar palladium) paper? Any experience using this paper of a paper coated with the chemicals. Is it true you need to have a neg as big as the print is going to be? Thanks

"Palladio" manufacters papers that are already coated. I beleive that they are in the Boston area.I don't beleive they are as good as paper you coat yourself. You need to judge for yourself.

You are correct, platinum/palladium is a contact printing process so you will need a decent sized negative. You could also have your negative enlarged via a number of different methods.

Hope this helps
