Peter, I never really noticed too much of a change in the flattening process or in mounting. I was referring more to the temp of the air on the surface while going from wet to dry. I am in the process of setting up some test printers and I 'll do some glossy papers when I have them up and running. Until then, I am still a matte kind of guy.

Tried a sheet of Innova Semi Matte. No change. Then I tried a sheet of Harman. Not sure. I certainly feels different. (like happens with SG) I think it is a bit more glossy (not what it needs) I don't have 2 identical prints to compare. Any changes are fairly subtle side by side comparison of the same print to be sure. Interesting stuff.
