I think the Ilford MGIV RC pearl and FB glossy are very comparable. They
aren't exactly the same, but its fairly easy to use the RC for proofs and
work prints and then get finals on the fiber. The main thing is that the
surface is somewhat different, the FB has a thicker base, and the contrast
curves are different, esp. in the highlights.
