Bringing up the age old question, "Does putting Aqueous Coating on an Uncoated Sheet do any good?". I have a job coming up where the customer (who is always right) wants to put a Flood PMS 186 on a Sheet of 160# DT Classic Crest Cover and seal it with Aqueous so it doesn't scuff. (Text paper is a 100# Uncoated Opaque so that doesn't help with the Scuffing) My experience tells me that the AQ soaks into the sheet like a sponge and that it will still scuff anyway. Does Dry Trapping the Aqueous in a second pass make any difference? Special kinds of AQ made for Uncoated?? I have worked with some people who's experience I respect who will use AQ on uncoated, and other people who I equally respect who simply won't do it. What I would like to do here is get your opinions and tally how many people are for it, and how many against. Of course if you have any experience or tricks that make this work, I'd like to know too.
Thanx, Bryan
