Yep, no experience with Strathmore. But I love disaster stories. I hope
Kerik will share!
My experience with the one and two ply Rising is that they look and print
identically or close to it, only the two ply has the occasional
de-lamination problem. I have to throw the one ply in the drymount press to
get it nice and flat after drying, though. Small problem. Pile of books will
work too.

I don't think the OxA helps with the spots, but I personally think that my
Platine images are a bit warmer when I use the OxA precoat. I'm doing it
routinely now on all the Platine I use. It's very easy and has no downside
that I can see.
