The existing MIS VM will not stick on RC paper.  At minimum, you'll have to
spray it after printing to keep it from rubbing off.  MIS will probably
release a new version of the VM inkset soon that is RC paper compatible, as
well as more lightfast.

Thanks Paul,

I will look forward to the new versions of the VM inks.
