Digital BW, The Print

Hello List.

I have been experimenting with Piezo print at my epson 1160 
and at the moment I am waiting for a set of MIS FS-N inks to 
arrive. 

My question goes on laminating.
Do some of you have experimented with laminating piezo-prints 
?
We know that prints made with pigmented inks on acid free 
100% cotton papers should last 'almost a lifetime', but what 
happens if these prints are laminated?

I have a Sallmetall vacuum press and have experimented with 
laminating piezo's with Printguard Satin. The result is beautiful 
and the ink tone doesn't change, even if the print is heated 
during the laminating process.

But I suppose a laminated print is not acid-free anymore??
So the laminate adds UV-protection and a nice glossy or matte 
surface, but what about the durability?
