I do not think it's a matter of spraying as the eboni ink on glossy I
find just dull and lifeless. I guess spraying might help for that. As
a comparison I found MIS FS-N inks to look pretty good on glossy when
I used that in my 1160. It just smudged easily. Spraying that solved
that problem. With eboni on glossy it just looked so bad from the
get-go that I dropped the idea after my first try. Not sure why as I
did not think the eboni was that different than the FS-N formula in
terms of how the ink sits.
