Topic: collodion Posted: 16 February 2006 at 20:29 |
Last summer I stored my collodion in a chest freezer that I had converted to
a fridge. I stored the collodion in an ice chest which was then placed in the freezer to keep down on any vapors. My freezer went out and now I'm wondering where in the heck I should store any future mixes. My garage tends to probably get too hot in the summer. I use to keep the collodin at work in a dorm fridge, but all of the talk last year about the dangers of keeping it in a small fridge made me change my mind. Any suggestions? Mark |

Thanks Quinn, but I am curious about the peltier cooling system. I've looked
around on the net and all I can come up with on peltier cooling is for computers. Thanks, Mark |

These are under $40 and are the perfect size. They are awesome in the summer when you are mobile too. Makes for a "veil free" plate with every pour!

Quinn,
When you say that they help with a "veil free" plate, are you saying that keeping the collodion cold is a real benefit...? Or is it the developer that should be kept cold ? (or both ?) I realise that hot weather is definitely a negative when it comes to getting "clean" plates, but I never really thought much about the collodion temp vs. plate veiling, and its always good to learn any new "tricks"... -Greg |
