Robert,
I may have missed something, but what is your coating system?

You can easily get to 2.2 with pigments on glossy stock...but you will
probably need to spray it.  I can also get to 2.2 with a print on matte
paper coated after printing with my coating system.  A spray won't get you
close on matte paper, though.
