Ilford Multigrade V RC Deluxe Glossy 8x10" 50 Sheets

This resin-coated black and white photo paper comes in a 50-sheet pack of 8x10 inch size. It suits beginners, students, and experienced darkroom printers who want reliable variable-contrast performance. The medium-weight 190gsm base with neutral tint provides a stable foundation for contact printing or enlarging. It is designed for traditional wet-process workflows rather than inkjet or laser output.

Variable contrast grades 00 to 5

The emulsion covers a full contrast range from grade 00 to grade 5, letting you adjust print contrast with filters without changing paper boxes. Excellent toning properties allow sepia, selenium, or other toners for creative finishing or archival stability. The glossy surface renders deep blacks and bright highlights for strong visual impact. This fifth-generation formula builds on a lineage dating back to 1940.

50 sheets for extended darkroom sessions

Fifty sheets give enough capacity for proofing, test strips, and final prints across multiple sessions. The resin coating reduces wash and dry times compared with fibre-based papers, increasing throughput for students or busy printers. It is not suited for colour processes, digital printers, or applications requiring a matt or pearl surface. Users needing larger formats or different surfaces will require other products.

Questions about this item

How should the 190gsm resin-coated paper be stored to keep it usable for future darkroom sessions?

Keep the box sealed in a cool, dry place away from safelight fog and humidity; the resin coating resists curl but the emulsion stays sensitive until exposed and developed.

What contrast range can I reach before the paper hits its limit during a long printing session?

The variable-contrast emulsion covers grades 00 to 5, so you can push from the softest to the hardest grade without changing paper stock.

Does the glossy surface generate heat or odour when left under the enlarger for hours?

The paper itself produces no heat or smell; only the chemistry trays and enlarger lamp warm up during extended use.
