Masking Negatives for Alternative Process Printing

While some prefer rough, overbrushed borders on their alternative process prints, I like a clean edge and this video describes and details how to mask your negative to accomplish this. Rubylith is used to filter out UV light in the borders giving a straight edge. Additional making of your paper when coating your emulsion, but with good clearing practices, this can be sufficient.
