Ilford Art 300 and Kentmere Fineprint VC

[taylan]

I have some suspicious about ilford art 300 and Kentmere Fineprint (Finegrain) are the same paper.
My local dealer hasn't import ilford art 300 and for this reason, I haven't any chance to try ilford art 300. In spite of that, when i read about the surface of the art 300, i resemble it to the Kentmere Fineprint (both Finegrain and F.G. Warmtone). I suspect that Harman Technology presents same surface with a thicker base under the brand of ilford art 300. What about your opinions. I wonder the opinions who used both of them.

Art 300 is like nothing else I have ever used: not RC, not baryta. See http://www.shutterbug.com/content/ilford-multigrade-art-300-new-exciting-multigrade-silver-paper

Cheers,

Thank you Roger for your reply and also article. When i read "eggshell" defination for the surface of art 300, i just resembled it to the Kentmere surface. Thank you for clarification
