Antonis,

Following is a portion of an email I received from Allen T. Maertz of
Lincoln Ink when I asked him the vary same question.

...Spectratones on Ilford media are difficult to get to fade at all. It's
even beating the Generations Pigmented on Hahnemuhle Etch 310....

That sounds promising.  I'll give `em the old south window test when I get
up and running with them.

I don't know if they're dyes or pigs, and I can't find that info on the
website.  I'm guessing they're dyes.  I'll ask Allen.

Ron

  Do you know anything about the longevity of the Spectratones? (are they
  pigment or dye or.. both?)
