All inkjet papers are different. Some have a clay coating, some use a
ceramic "microcoat", some have a plastic coat that kind of seals up
after ink is applied.
Often the thick photo paper seems to have a plastic coated back or
something else making it water resistant.
You want the kind with a water soluble coating. IE, probably not the
really high end inkjet photo paper.
