Thanks Clayton,

I must say I have read your article already several times in the 
past, but there's some much info in it that apparently one only 
absorbs what one is looking for. So I was not aware your description 
of Museo Max. Sounds like a very valid approach as well. The extra 
warmth and slightly reduced Dmax would not be a problem for the 
current series.

I guess I'll first proceed with the coating route, but if the looks 
remain too "coated", I'll give Museo Max a try.
