I’m using an Epson 7890 and the ink set really shines on this paper. I have prints that are on Kodak Endura and comparing them side by side I can say I’ve found my Endura alternative. Slickrock is deffinately gallery quality paper and images pop brilliantly!

This paper does have a lovely sheen and, I think, is best suited for images with a warmer/ yellowish character. I used it in a head-to-head print off with Canon Pro Platinum & Canon Semi-Gloss. The sane picture file (unaltered per sheet) was used for all prints-and the same printer settings (except different ICC for the Semi-Gloss). The photo was a landscape (lots of sun) with the sun behind me. The Canon Pro Platinum displayed the brightest image with the most natural color. The Canon Semi-Gloss and the Metallic Pearl 260 were fairly close for color, with the Semi-Gloss being just a little more natural in color-the Metallic Pearl has a distinctive yellow cast-that is very nice with warmer colors-but I find, not so natural. I thought the image detail was better with the Canon paper as well. I then tried two different photos -under the same conditions-and found the same results! The Metallic Pearl 260 is, also, very delicate-and must be handled with great care! I, also cannot see where the M.Pearl paper can be used without being dry mounted for display; very limp!? D.Leary

I used this paper for my current exhibit of B & W 13×19 prints. It is very well suited due to its sheen. Although not for pigment inks, it is a worthwhile product for reasonable longevity and its appearance can be striking depending on subject matter. Highly recommended to at least try!!

This is becoming my new favorite paper. It prints well with a variety of different subject matter. HDR photos jump off the page. It has just enough of a pearl finish to make images pop, but not so mach to be distracting.

This paper is great. You get a slight reflection of light from the base creating an almost 3D look to your work. After I created a profile using my Munki prints came out perfect. The stock icc wasn’t bad either. I’ve do mostly architectural and found that photos with nice textures and lots of lines really shine on this paper as the lines are more pronounced with the metallic look. Great paper!

The packaging is very high quality, the paper is very heavy. I think the finish is a little less slick than I have seen in other metallic papers, though. However, when printed (Epson SureColor P800 in my case) the results are very pleasing.

Moab Slickrock is riddle wrapped in an enigma posing as a question. Do you want this effect? Or not? For the right image, it’s wonderful both color and monochrome. It is reminiscent of a pure metallic but not overwhelmingly so. It’s one of the products you have to try. If you have the right image, nothing else will touch it. If not blah! I like it a lot for the work I do. I recommend a trial package for your images. I think you’ll like it!

I have been shooting a lot of photos of moving water, ice, snow, etc. recently and this paper really makes sparkly subjects pop in a gratifying way that you don’t get even with glossy paper. The downside is that from some angles and in some lighting you get a metallic sheen, especially noticeable with dark colors. When used with discretion it is a nice addition to the printer’s arsenal.

Clean and crisp colors and contrast with a subtle metallic sheen. Works great with my Epson. This is my go to paper for all my nature photography prints.

The sheen this metallic paper provides is perfect for my astroscape and nightscape photography; it separates the black space from the stars and nebulosity in a fantastic way.

Colours, details and finish are excellent. ICC profile for many printers. Cannot ask more.

I love this paper. I now use it exclusively with all my small fine art photography prints. The only reason for the 4-star review is there is always 1-2 pieces that have very minor flaws that cause me to toss that sheet and reprint. With, I do give the paper the benefit of the doubt as it could be a flaw in the printer printing process. Regardless, overall the quality is exactly what I am look for in a fine art print. Detail, exceptional tonal contrast, and makes the image come to life. Highly recommend if these are the qualities you look for.

My favorite non-metal media. It isn’t quite a Retina screen, but for paper prints on this continue to thrill me for landscapes, night time city scapes, even a few engagement photos with golden light or streams. Could not find any better for mountain sunrise/set in mountain pools and ponds.

I love this paper – which I sometimes use for a slightly non-realistic sheen in certain fine art landscapes. It cannot be thought of as a white paper. It is metallic and therefore generates a very slight grey. If that effect comes from a conscious choice, it can be enhancing, adding a gorgeous pop to an image. However, if not, the results can seem unexpected, weird, or just wrong!

My printer can’t pick up this paper for some reason unknown to me. Must be due to its’ surface as far as I can tell. Would be nice to see what it looks like. One piece got halfway through but then jammed the printer.

I have tested this product in 8 1/2 11 sheets previously and loved it. I decided to bite the bullet and purchase the 24 x 100 ft roll as well as the 17 x 100 ft roll. For the proper images and especially for B&W images….it rocks!!! The pictures take on another dimension that you normally do not get with the other papers. The paper is high quality and the colors are brilliant. I highly recommend this paper for photographers who want to take their images to the next level. This paper is a homerun from Moab!!!I currently use this product with Canon ipf6450.

For that special inkjet photo–usually a gift to a friend–the Moab Slickrock Metallic is a terrific complement to Epson Ultra Premium Luster. The colors are true and boy, do they pop ! If you want to impress your clients and friends, try this paper.

This is now my primary printing paper. Bright and vibrant colors and a wonderful profile that gives me fantastic compatibility with my P800. I highly recommend this paper.

I’ve taken a series of toy camera photographs with my Diana F+ of an abandoned amusement park and in my mind it required a paper that would best show-off not only the decay of the park but also the quirkiness gained from such a simple piece of equipment. With the paper’s beautiful, pearl and metallic sheen, and it’s true-ness to the odd colorations, the images pop right off the page. I brought them to an informal throw-down at a local photography gallery, and my fellow photographers were as excited about the paper as they were the images. I can’t find fault with the paper–the mill’s profile was spot-on, so I was able to print without the drudgery of adjusting and readjusting settings to make the stock work with my printer and computer. So of course, I’m now intrigued and am ordering sample packages of Moab’s other paper.
