Have been a listener to the group for months and found much helpful information. I use Lyson small gamut in a 1160 and have had no problems in colour shift after a 24hours settling period The tonal range beats my untoned B & W prints. Some are on display and others scattered about the room or in drawers not all have been sprayed with print guard. Have you tried Marrutt's the UK distributor? They give about the best service of any firm I have used and always go out of their way to help with any problems or questions.
