Ilford Multigrade Resin Coated Pearl Darkroom Paper Sheets

Ilford Multigrade Resin Coated Deluxe Paper Pearl Sheets are high-quality black and white darkroom paper. This is a paper designed for printing in a traditional black and white darkroom. Originally released in 1940, Ilford's Multigrade paper has evolved over the years and become the go-to choice when it comes to resin-coated paper. It's perfect for beginners and professionals alike.

This particular paper comes in the popular pearl finish. Giving it a subtle pearlescent surface that helps your images look sharp and clear with some added depth. It also has a bright white base colour and will give a neutral image tone to your images.

Ilford Multigrade is a variable contrast paper, which means that it is possible to get the full range of contrast from your negatives. Simply use it in conjunction with a multigrade enlarger and you can print from grade 00 through to 5. If used without any filters on your enlarger, it equates to approximately grade 2 or 3.

Joseph ★★★★★

I’ve been printing on these pearl sheets for a few weeks now, and the tonality is just gorgeous—deep blacks with smooth gradients that the matte paper I used before never delivered. The 8x10 size fits perfectly in my enlarger, and the finish has a subtle sheen without being glossy.

Miles ★★★★★

The resin coating makes these sheets dry perfectly flat, no curling at all, which saves me so much time in the darkroom. Tones come out rich and the pearl finish gives prints a subtle glow that scans beautifully.

Amelia ★★★★★

The pearl surface gives my black and white prints a subtle, professional sheen that really makes the highlights pop. I especially appreciate how fast it dries without any curling, which speeds up my workflow quite a bit.
