Designed for photographers seeking to enhance their images with a metallic look, Slickrock Metallic Pearl 260 transforms an image into lifelike, almost 3D quality. Black & White images shine on this new paper producing deep dark blacks and ultra-bright highlights. Reminiscent of the ultra-smooth and slick sandstone surface of the famous bike trail that loops through the desert plains of Moab, Slickrock Metallic Pearl 260 captures the original beauty of an image with a metallic pearl enhancement. The paper’s high gloss and unique sheen make this ideal for everyday prints with a twist. Specifications:

Sihl Masterclass Metallic Pearl High Gloss 290 and Moab’s Slickrock Metallic Pearl 260 are both metallic resin coated products. Sihl Masterclass Metallic Pearl High Gloss 290 has a thicker base and a more subtle use of the metallic reflective coating whereas Moab’s Slickrock Metallic Pearl 260 is strongly reflective. This difference in reflectivity is by design. The Sihl Masterclass product has a cleaner whitepoint and is more suitable as a color portrait or wedding paper. It should also be considered for landscape usage where the subject features a clean white such as a snow-capped mountain. Moab’s Slickrock works best in Black and White or color where there is a strong tone such as that reflected from metallic objects like musical instruments or motor vehicles.
