what are spot UV business cards?
[+] What are Spot UV business cards?
Spot UV coating is applied to the artwork area of your choice, or the choice of your Designer. (Spot UV is a coating technique, not a printing technique.)
[+] What is Spot UV?
Ultraviolet (UV) light is applied to the card stock, and cures the varnish applied to the printed material. This finish results in a shiny coating that increases visual interest and attraction to these areas. This coating can be applied to the entire print item, but it is called 'Spot' UV due to it only being applied in certain spots. ☺
[+] Does Spot UV chip off?
The paper stock ultimately determines how durable the entire piece becomes, but Spot UV applied to the top of surfaces tends to keep its integrity.
[+] How do you apply Spot UV to the card?
Your Designer sets up a layer in your design specifically for the Spot UV production machine. This layer communicates to the machine, which "prints' liquid varnish directly on the stock. Ultraviolet (UV) light is then applied to the card stock, and cures the varnish applied to the print. This finish results in a shiny coating that increases visual interest and attraction to these areas. This coating can be applied to the entire print, but it is called 'Spot' UV due to it only being applied in certain spots. ☺
