What would be a problem is people touching the black areas and leaving marks. For this, I'd recommend 3 light coats of Lascaux Fixativ. See http://www.dickblick.com/zz217/14/ . Most other fixatives reduce dmax too much. About the brightest (most OBAs) paper I've seen is the Premier Premium Matte -- great dmax and cheap also. See http://www.photowarehouse.biz/premier.html, the last paper listed. Good luck.
