Product identity

Ilford Ilfospeed RC Grade 3 Glossy is a resin-coated black-and-white enlarging paper supplied as 25 sheets measuring 8 by 10 inches. It has a 190 g/m² base with a bright white tint and neutral image tone under daylight or fluorescent light. The 1M glossy surface delivers the highest contrast in the graded range.

Who it suits and who it does not

Darkroom printers who need a fixed grade 3 contrast on a glossy surface for commercial, press, industrial, advertising or display work will find this paper matches the requirement. Buyers who want variable contrast control, a semi-matt or pearl finish, or activation-type processing should look at other products because this grade is single-contrast and not suitable for that workflow.

Deciding specification

The single specification that decides fit is the fixed grade 3 contrast on a 1M glossy resin-coated base; if your printing workflow demands a different grade or surface, this pack will not meet the need.

Questions about this item

Should I pick glossy, semi-matt or pearl surface for this paper?

This pack is the 1M glossy surface; semi-matt (24M) and pearl (44M) are separate products.

What does Grade 3 contrast mean when I print under the enlarger?

Grade 3 gives a mid-to-high contrast step in the six-grade range, rendering stronger blacks and brighter whites than Grades 0-2.

Can I run these sheets through an automatic black-and-white processor?

Yes, the resin-coated base is designed for both tray development and machine processing in standard B&W paper processors.
