## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this paper sturdier than Sumi-E for suminagashi?**
A: Unfortunately this paper is of inferior quality and should not be used for anything that involves water. I tried it for suminagashi and it completely dissolved. This is basically low quality copy paper claiming to be something else.

**Q: Does this paper having sizing on it?**
A: No sizing. I don’t use water media on it. I paint this sketch paper for use in creating collage pieces. CJones

**Q: should this be stored with mothballs?**
A: This sounds like a question for the seller. I’m an artist that use this paper to paint and use for collage material. I don’t store any of my papers with mothballs. The scent would run me away before a moth could come near them as my sense of smell is strong.

**Q: Is this smooth enough to use fountain pens on?**
A: One side is definitely smoother than the other. I use it to make prints with as it takes the paints well. but I am not sure that it would be suitable for fountain pen.  But when you think about it, the Japanese semi-e method uses wet ink, so I would suggest you give it a go if you can afford to put the pad aside if it doesn't suit your purpose.

El producto cumple muy bien mis expectativas, lo uso para impresiones en gel. Lo que está pésimo es que lo mandan en un empaque muy endeble y llega algo maltratado de las esquinas, deben corregir esto.
