I have printed extensively on Fujiflex, both in my own darkroom and having prints made in labs.
The Fujiflex surface is extremely beautiful, having excellent colour reproduction for a chromogenic paper, but it is very, very delicate. It fingerprints and scratches very easily. I joke that you cannot even breathe on the material.
After drying, the print should be subjected to an absolute minimum of handling. Even storing the print with interleaving tissue is bound to produce minute scratches from the weight of prints above. The best treatments after printing are: Immediate and careful placement in storage or immediate framing behind glass or acrylic. Shipping of a rolled print is difficult as any material used to interleave the rolled print could scratch. Experienced labs should know how to package the bare print but flat shipping would be best. If the print is mounted, dibond is an absolute must for flatness or face mounting to acrylic. It is not uncommon to get very fine scratches in the mounting process unless the lab is truly expert.
So a beautiful material but quite difficult to handle.
