Whitewall Printing

Has anybody tried having B&W prints done at whitewall?

If so what was the quality like?

I'm going to cross post this to the B&W forum too...

Thanks

Phil

Hi Phil,

I've been contemplating Whitewall for some acrylics... They have decent paper and profiles etc - not seen or heard of anyone using them though

Cheers
Andy

I got a freebie sample of the aluminum based prints and I have to say it was really good, but colour.

I've seen those aluminium backed ones before - but these were straight onto alu and looked very metalic. I think Whitewall also offer prints stuck to alu as well as directly onto alu. Might ask for a freebie acrylic sample...

Cheers
Andy

There was a review in AP this week of Whitewall. They got 5 stars (out of 5) and favourable comments.

Hi Chris,
I'm going to send off for a small (low cost) print to evaluate thier B&W quality. I'll let you know how I get on via the forum.

Cheers
Phil

I have had a couple of acrlylics done by them and I ordered them through Whitewall.co.uk but the prints came from Berlin. They were well packaged and look good but they have warped slightly
