60# Polar Matte… an excellent choice

After testing my prints on many types of paper, I selected Polar Matte as the best all around paper for work. At this time, I print all my photorealistic prints on Polar Matte paper. The details are crisp, value gradient transitions are smooth and saturation levels are accurate. \nWhen I need a glossy paper, Red River is where I will go to find it.
