Allan,

>or only on the ones not going behind glass?

I don't put glossy prints under glass.  In part this is due to the fogging
problem.  But, some do put un-sprayed Semimatte under glass just to get the
better dmax in the image.

I don't spray all the gloss prints.  The Costco paper and the Epson Glossy
Photo paper just don't need spray.  So, I use them for snapshots and,
especially the Costco, proofs and draft prints as I work up an image.
