Include Spot UV on Your Printed Products

Applying Spot UV (also referred to as Spot Gloss or Spot Varnish) to your business card, postcards, presentation folders and other business products. It’s a favorite added feature. We have created a Spot UV tutorial to help you through the process to ensure the files are correct. Once we print the product, we apply a clear glossy UV Coating to select areas of the card such as logos, photos or even as a blind pattern to create highlights, contrast, and dimension.
