Different types of Unryu paper?
Posted: July 5th, 2012, 10:26 am
Hi all,
Since I read quit some good posts about the use of unryu with MC, I started to experiment with it some time ago. When entering several shops, I never found a consistent naming in the unryu papers. I can find two unryu papers nearby: one is called "washi unryu" and is 25 gsm, the other one is called "awagami unryu" also 25 gsm. Does anybody now what the difference between these papers is? And is there a difference between these unryu papers and Thai Unryu? I'm currently using the washi unryu paper, but even after applying MC I still find it rather soft. It is also hard to see the creases. Is this always the case with unryu?
Thanks in advance for your opinions!
