Been there done THAT Roger!
You need to make two profiles, one pre-laminate and the other post-
laminate.
The job gets separated via the post-laminate profile but you hand the
pressman a proof done using the pre-laminate profile...looks ugly when
they run it but as long as they match the proof, it should look just
as you expect once the lamination is applies.
Spent most of a weekend in a hotel with my iCColor a few years back
running bunches of IT8 charts from pre/post-laminate press sheets that
had about 3-4 different laminates applied. Lots of beer and room
service that weekend!

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?
