Correct for a laminate finish

Hello color folks,

 

I got myself into a real sticky one and hope you guys (and girls) would have
some word of advice for this poor soul. I'm just trying to help a friend...

 

The problem is that, in the process of apply a thin matte lamination to a
press sheet, all colors on the printed sheet take on an ugly reddish cast.
(I'm not sure whether a similar issue was discussed on the list recently?)

 

It's easy enough to make a profile *with* the lamination applied to the
sheet. Makes for great ICC output profile. But how to sort of isolate the
overall shift of color that happen, as a result of the lamination, in order
to come up with a separation that will look ugly to the pressman, but once
the lamination applied to the sheet, will start looking "normal" again?

 

Assume the jobs comes in with a GRACoL2006_C1 profile.

 

I was thinking of converting to the laminate profile, first, and then
convert to the unlaminated press profile back, but that does not seem right.


 

Any ideas is welcome. Sorry for picking your brains so shamelessly ...

 

Roger
