I agree, it's a good combination. I've finally got the R1800 working 
well with the K4 inks, with LLK in the red position, and LK in the glop 
position. Finally, no microbanding. I am still using the glop though, 
misted on very lightly with an airbrush. It doesn't help as much as it 
used to with the UC inks, (because the problem is almost completely 
eliminated) but it does clear that slight bit of veiling and very 
slight gloss differential still left. And guess what: the last bottle 
of glop I got is clear, not tea colored, so it doesn't yellow your 
highlights.

BTW: I don't like the surface quite as much becuase it prints with more 
of that 'pearl' texture, but Red River's UltraPro Satin gets an even 
better dmax
