Question
What is the equivalent to Flood UV Coating?
Answer
Flood UV coating simply means the entire card is covered with a high-gloss UV coating, as opposed to spot UV, where only specific areas are coated. So the equivalent to flood UV is any full-coverage high-gloss UV finish: the coating floods the whole surface rather than being placed in select spots.
- Flood UV equals overall UV, sometimes called full UV, applied edge to edge across the side.
- The result is a bright, glossy, protective sheen over the complete printed area.
- By contrast, spot UV leaves most of the card matte and glosses only chosen details.
- Choose flood UV when you want maximum shine and surface protection across the whole card.
