Yes Tim you are right. Sorry all.
Thanks,

Kirk,
I think you must be remembering the Boss screen? As already stated the Maxwell is a sold piece of optical plastic and there's nothing to delaminate. Bill did caution strongly about not handling or even touching the frosty side (inside the camera).
No prices. I hate that. Anyone know what his prices are for 4x5, 8x10 etc? I may be interested in getting one for my Rollei 6008 and the 11x14 field camera. I can call, of course, but I don't want to waste the man's time if it's significantly more than I want to spend.

I think they're in the $200-250 range for 4x5...But I may have gleaned that from an old post.

I got a Maxwell for my Toho. It is a great screen and very easy to install. I am thoroughly satisfied with it.
I got the Hi-Lux Brilliant Matte (engraved 1" grid), screen for my 4x5 Ebony and paid $225.
Prices will vary depending on what you want. Your best bet is to talk to Bill.
My 8 x 10 hi lux fresnel for an ebony was $205. Works great. I second the recommendation to call Bill or send an email and he will call you back promptly.
A great and interesting guy. But make sure that HE calls YOU, not the other way around -- he'll talk your left ear off. His phone bill must be enormous.

Kirk: I think you are thinking of the Boss screen? That has a layer of wax in it? The Maxwell looks like one piece of plastic to me.
