Steve,

Kirkland Glossy paper (sold by Costco) is a very nice glossy paper 
with great color gamut and Dmax, and has less bronzing than most 
glossy papers, but there is still some of it.  It is only available 
in 8.5 X 11 unfortunately.  Coating your print with PremierArt Print 
Shield usually deals with the rest.  This is a solvent based spray 
that protects and seals.  Mounting behind glass is also an option.
