Should work great. Wet paper coating on thinner paper has very few potential pitfalls. Always start with a recipe as written. If the first sheet looks like it has spots, add a drop of surfactant and check the next sheet. If you can't really see the surface of the paper under your regular darkroom light, use a red LED flashlight, or a small flashlight with red lith film covering the light. Hold it at about 45 degrees to the paper surface and any and all flaws will pop out at you. Sometimes spots happen when the emulsion temperature is wrong. Either too warm or too cold can cause problems. The good news is that it's unlikely to take more than one recipe to figure out your personal workflow. That's the craft in the art and science :smile:.
