Default Quiet Armor and Hidey Armor Enchantments

Low Tech brings new rules regarding Concealing Armor and Stealth in Armor

Magic came out well before Low Tech did, and thus is lacking anything regarding this topic

So Id like to get ideas on what people think are fair enchantment prices for a spell which counters the DR based stealth penalty (Im half thinking it should follow the same progression as Fortify. Leather of Quality adds +1 DR, Harden adds +1 DR, and Lacquering is -1 stealth penalty, all for +4 CF, and Fortify 1 is +1 DR)

The other spell Im interested in is an idea for 'Armor of Concealment', which should negate the concealment penalty for holdout for armor. No real idea on it

I have no thoughts on this other than Mage Stealth being an option, but it doesn't seem to fit exactly what you're doing: I also don't know enough about the magic system to work you out an enchantment to fit.

Comparing it to other enchantments is the way I'd do it too. I'd allow it as a GM...

Any ideas on an enchantment to enhance concealability?

I'd think some variation of Avoid -- it's concealed in plain sight. Or something like Hide enchanted into it. Finally, a permanent illusion shell that made it look like something mundane and/or clothing-like (much as real concealed armor tries to blend in with normal clothes).
