Re: BW and Sheen


Rather new to this forum I have tagged along from AVS. I've tested BW mix using AAA. Different latex paints and acrylics. I am not saying sheen is the key or anything as I have'nt seen your originals.

What I can say is that in Sweden, a flat paint hides most of the aluminum and more sheen added reveals more flakes. In my case as I have'nt found a good base yet, I've added some sheen, I think I may have found a balance which leaves no hotspotting but really nice whites and blacks. In my case I tried for the BW-EW or Munsell N8-8,5. Have an old Toshiba Mt200 which is'nt a light canon...

So, if sheen do not give the screen it's properties it definately brings forward the aluminum.

If you have any other suggestions on how to get myself a nice BW screen I am all ears.
