I want to try out the palladium/platinum process, but I am aware that the chemicals are not cheap. What prices are to be expected (in Europe) for 5g of Ammonium tetrachloropalladate/Ammonium tetrachloroplatinate ? thx, Marc.

Try this web site www.bostick-sullivan.com they publish their prices and I suppose you would need to ask them how much to ship to Europe. From your choices I see you are going to try the ziatype and/or the Malde/Ware method, so you might want to also get their book "the new platinum print" which describes the process in detail. Good luck!

Marc:

You may also try E Mailing Sura Steinberg at: palladio@napc.com. They -Palladio- sell coated paper and chem kits for PtPd printing, as well as light sources and a wonderfull booklet on the process and making camera negatives for the process.

They do ship around the world, as I have received stuff from them in Vancouver and they will be shipiing stuff to me in Singapore.

Good Luck
