The clearest clear bags?

[Darin Boville]

I bought a few packages of Archival Methods clear bags. Look a tad yellow, dulls the highlights a bit. I'd pay more for a really clear "archival" bag. Bonus point if the bag material wasn't *quite* so reflective...

Anyone do a comparison between the various vendors?

clearbags.com, the ones with the adhesive strip on the bag, not the flap.

A second for Clearbags. The adhesive strip on the bag, rather than the flap, is wonderful.

btw, the Archival Methods bags also have the strip on the bag part, not the flap.

Have you guys done a direct comparison of the two brands in terms of being colorless? Any other brands out there?

No, I haven't but the clear bags are completely colorless and don't yellow over time (ten years). They ARE nicer than most of the bags I see people using. PM me if you want me to mail you an 8x10 bag to check out. I have a bunch since I rarely use that size.

Me too, clearbags. I use them for all my negs too..They have all the sizes.

Life's way too short to be comparing bags when there are so many pictures to be made.

They're bags. They so the job.

Plus whatever for Clearbags. I'm satisfied - so are the folks who buy the prints.

[evan clarke]

I print platinum through clearbags,

[Bruce Barlow]

Wow! I have a clear piece of some kind of plastic through which I print PT. Never thought of a Clearbag. Cool!

Thank you. Old dog now has new trick. Maybe I am not old.

I love pel's stuff (http://www.preservationequipment.com/). The clear archival pockets are sturdy and re-usable.

My clear bag order just arrived today. I'll compare the Clear Bag brand (both regular and premium) and the Archival Methods bag and will report back (if I don't forget).
