good glossy photo paper?

[ScottyAdams]

Anybody have any recommendations for a good glossy photo paper? We have an eco-solvent roland VS-540 6 color setup. I tried Roland's photo paper and was not pleased with it. Anybody know of or have used anything else with beautiful results. These are going to be mounted sandwiched between two pieces of clear acrylic mounted off the wall with standoffs in a high end construction co lobby so they need to look "high end" high quality. Thanks

Is 36" ok? If so I have a killer photo gloss for solvent

We have recently launched a new high photo gloss. If you last tried Roland's more than 60 days ago, it has changed. The new ESM-GPP2 is a much better product than the old one. Shoot me a PM with contact info and I'll get a printed sample out.

Satin vs. matte vs. gloss

Scotty, since the print will be SANDWICHed in clear acrylic, the lighting and glare could really negatively affect the appearance of the print. Have you considered a satin or matte to enhance the print image and allow the acrylic to provide the gloss finish?

For gloss we use Sihl papers, for satin I love postermax.

I ended up ordering Intelicoat Magic GFPHOTO240 10 mil glossy photo paper. Oh man is this stuff amazing. The prints came out A-freakin-mazing. I would highly recommend this material to anyone in search of some high quality photo paper. Picked it up from Feller's...arrived the next day.
