I don't have any FB paper. Why not try glazing for yourself? I shall have access to a darkroom next Tuesday. I will do comparative tests on RC paper (air-dried and infra-red) and bring the results back to where I have a reflection densitometer (mid-June). The results will be different, I'm sure, but the densitometer geometry (45° illumination, 90° measurement) may not show as much difference as a subjective view.

I have a roller dryer for RC paper, it has heating elements inside the type you get on a electric fire, when you put glossy RC paper through it , it comes out more glosser than if you let it air dry also its very fast ,it is a great gadget to have if you use RC paper ..
