Question
What card thickness works best for painted edges?
Answer
Edge color needs a wide enough edge to show, so thickness is the first decision. 32pt is the minimum that displays color clearly.
| Thickness | Edge result |
|---|---|
| 14pt and thinner | Too little edge surface, and paint can warp the card |
| 32pt | Recommended minimum, clear visible color |
| 38pt to 48pt | Even bolder, more dramatic edge |
