Ilford Multigrade FB Classic, Enlarging Paper 11x14", 50 Sheets, Matte #1172302

How can you elevate your photographic prints to a professional level? The answer lies in the ILFORD MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC Enlarging Paper. This high-quality, variable contrast, black and white photographic paper is designed for the creative printer seeking neutral image color, exceptional clarity, and a robust response to toners.

Coated onto a 255g/m2 fibre base, the MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC is a durable and reliable choice for photographers. It features a white base tint, which ensures that prints made on this paper exhibit rich blacks, excellent tonal rendition, and an overall impressive print appearance.

This versatile photographic paper is not only superb in quality but also easy to work with in the darkroom. It is particularly well-suited to toning applications, especially on the glossy surface, making it an ideal choice for photographers who want to experiment with different effects.

The MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC is a fast exposure darkroom paper, with a short induction time of around 20 seconds for image appearance during processing. It offers a closer speed relationship between grades, more uniform grade separation, and sharp images. It also provides an extended low contrast at soft filtrations (00 end) and a 50% reduction in wash times, saving on water without compromising on the handling and filtration during processing that you have come to expect from traditional MULTIGRADE FB papers.

This professional-grade enlarging paper is suitable for use in all types of darkroom enlargers. It is compatible with most safelights designed for black and white papers with a cut-off no lower than 580nm. Moreover, it is fully compatible with the ILFORD chemistry range as well as the ILFORD optimum permanence wash sequence.

When used with ILFORD MULTIGRADE FILTERS, the MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC will deliver seven full grades of contrast from grade 00 to grade 5 in half grade steps. After washing and drying, it can be mounted using the standard methods for fibre-based papers.

In summary, the ILFORD MULTIGRADE FB CLASSIC Enlarging Paper is a high-quality, durable, and versatile choice for photographers looking to produce professional-grade prints.
