Dilute the spotting light (light) grey ink with gloss enhancer and apply 
it with a fillable drawing pen, 0.13 mm thick in pointillistic manner, 
control on ink amount improves that way.

Use watercolor pencils from a good brand, sharp point and a wet sponge 
to vary the absorption by the inkjet coating.
