I read somewhere that if you draw a cross on the ground glass with an H lead
pencil and stick a piece of glass slide over it with canada balsam (which
has the same refractive index as glass and is used for microscope slides)
this provides a good focusing system working on parallax or something. I

Hi leezy,
I'm sort of puzzled why you would need to darken the windows of a
DIGITAL darkroom, but I'll put that aside.
For darkening the windows of the darkroom, I use an opaque white cloth
available from fabric and decorating shops; it's called blackout
cloth. Its nominal use is as a lining
Roc-Lon TLC Blackout Drapery liner.

If you wish, I can send you one to look at before you buy. I haven't
finished my darkroom here so it's just lying around...
