This year we are pleased to offer the unique product system, which will make it possible to coat light sensitive photographic emulsions onto almost any kind of surface: Glass, wood, textile fabric, ceramics, metal, stone, plastics etc. with unlimited creativity.


Rollei's Black Magic offers a complete modular system with interchangeable components in Graded (G3) or VC (G0-4) options. It's so simple too because you get EVERYTHING you need in one 300ml kit including emulsion, gelatine for hardening, (light-tight) wide-mouth pouring bottle, and enough tailored chemicals to develop your images to perfection. For example Rollei not only provides neutral developer, fixer and odourless stop but the all-important developer hardener to make sure your image lasts. In addition, exceptional archival qualities are offered by them adding a minimum quantity (0,1%) of a powerful fungicide and bactericide (phenol) for long term conservation. When you've used some of your initial kit all component parts are available separately for replenishment.


We thoroughly recommend Black Magic - particularly for those customers who want excellent results at the first attempt but ones that will also last a lifetime.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Ellie W. ★★★★★

Tried this on a piece of raw canvas, and it coated evenly without pooling or streaking. The 100ml bottle is just the right size for a few test runs before committing to a bigger project.

Timothy ★★★★★

I brushed a thin layer onto a raw wooden panel and it dried clear enough to see the grain—definitely a game-changer for alternative printing. The gelatine’s consistency was smooth and easy to spread without bubbles.

Olivia ★★★★★

Applied it to a scrap piece of glass first, and the emulsion coated surprisingly evenly. The 100ml bottle goes further than I expected for small test runs. Really opens up what surfaces you can print on for alt process work.
