I wouldn't call it more glossy per se. If you need a true high gloss surface you have to use Fuji Supergloss, which is on polyester rather than paper. Metallic is indeed another RC paper option, and the kind of thing you sometimes encounter in dept store displays. It can look awfully kitchy; but the only way to tell if you like it or not for your own work is to try it.

FYI you can get Metallic prints from Printique if you want to check the look. It's a pretty wild gloss look to it. I was debating trying to print to it directly...could be fun. Back in the day I used regular endura glossy, which looked great as is.

I wish Endura papers could once more be bought in mainland Europe. Sadly Kodak never responded to my question about near-future availability in this part of the world.

You might want to check with Hans from EasyMedal. I got an email from him a couple of weeks back with the Endura price list. It would only make sense to send out such emails if Endura was available again in continental Europe...

I emailed with him a couple of months ago. He told me Endura was not available and wouldn't be anymore at least from his shop. Too bad because I get most of my color stuff from him.

It might be worth checking again, in case the transition from Kodak Alaris to Sino Promise Holdings has made a difference.

I will for sure as soon as I get back to RA4 printing. It would be my preferred option. I've had nothing but good experiences with Hans.
