Spot UV Postcards

spot uv postcards

Spot UV printing is a great way to make your postcards stand out and grab attention. By adding a high-gloss coating to selected areas of your artwork, you can create highlights, dimension, and contrast that will make your postcards pop.

One of the biggest advantages of spot UV printing is that it enhances the shine of your postcards, protects the color, and keeps away moisture and damage, which preserves the life of the finished product. This technique targets specific areas, sealing in their color and producing an attractive sheen. Spot finishes can also create texture on a printed surface for an eye-catching effect.

In addition to its visual appeal, spot UV printing is also environmentally friendly, as it is known for its lack of volatility. By using spot UV printing, you can add intrigue to your postcards and create a final product that promotes your brand and gives your potential clients something they won’t want to throw away. So if you’re looking for a way to make your products and brand pop and grab attention, spot UV printing is an excellent choice.

What is Spot UV?

Spot UV printing is a coating technique that involves applying high-gloss UV coating to a product using ultraviolet light to cure the printed material’s varnish. This method gives the targeted areas a shiny, vibrant aesthetic and adds a protective coating to the printed product. The process involves using UV light to cure the coating applied to protect the packaging, which seals in the vividness of the color and adds an additional layer of protection to the finished product. UV coatings can vary from a glossy look to a highly reflective shine, and the coating is only added to certain areas. The moment this affected area is exposed to UV light, the coating dries instantly, allowing designers to get creative with the covered area.

To set up your file for spot uv printing, follow these important steps:

  • Your file should contain two layers.
    • One layer contains your artwork in CMYK
    • Another layer to show where the spot uv will be applied
  • The artwork and spot UV layers should align properly.
  • Use 100% K or black to elements for spot uv, and 0% K where spot uv is not applied.
