OK, knee jerk response on my part. On the glossy print side of things, I've
had great results with the BrightCube Semi matte. You still need to spray,
but this paper takes the ink and spray really well. Being in Europe I used
the Ghiant spray which lays down smoothly and thinly. I made a couple of big
sales whilst in London with prints on this paper - the other prints on view
were silver and the BrightCube held up well.
