FINISHES
OVERALL GLOSS UV COATING is standard on all our 14 and 16 point card stock. UV coating is a clear liquid spread over the paper like ink and then cured instantly with ultraviolet light. UV coating gives more protection and sheen than either aqueous coating or varnish. Since it is cured with light and not heat, no solvents enter the atmosphere so it is environmentally friendly.
MATTE / DULL COATING is available on all jobs printed on 14 or 16 Pt card stock. Matte coating creates a flat smooth look that reflects less light than glossy coatings. It removes the glare and is very effective over type. Use matte coating for a more subtle,quite effect.
SPOT UV COATING is a great option for giving your printed piece the WOW FACTOR! Spot UV highlights and draws attention to a selected area by creating a visual stimulus to draw the eye. It enhances the value and give the impression of importance and quality to the finished piece.
SILVER (PMS 877) (available 5/0, 5/1, 5/4, 5/5) can be used on all cards. It creates a very unique and exciting look to distinguish you from your competition. Silver can be used in type, background or a boarder. It's sure to get your card noticed.
