The finish
A glossy UV coating applied to chosen areas contrasts with the matte base, adding visual depth and detail. Often used to accent motifs or text.
Suitable uses
Detail accents, visual layering. Start with the part of the design you want to emphasize, then consider the paper and overall layout.
Design considerations
- Gloss coating on chosen areas
- Matte vs. gloss contrast
- Adds detail and layering

Preparing a customization request
Provide your logo or artwork, approximate quantity, intended use and required arrival date. For combined finishes, identify where each effect belongs and confirm the design before production. A screen image alone does not establish the final color or texture.
See the artwork preparation guide, quotation checklist, or compare finishes.
