Question
What is silk lamination, and how does it differ from matte or gloss?
Answer
Silk lamination is a thin protective film with a soft, smooth, almost fabric-like feel. It sits between matte and gloss.
| Finish | Feel | Color | Shine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silk | Soft, smooth | Saturated | Low, no glare |
| Gloss | Slick | Very saturated | High shine |
| Matte | Flat, dry | Slightly muted | None |
- Rich color close to gloss without the reflective shine.
- Softer to the touch than a standard matte coating.
- Resists fingerprints and scuffs better than uncoated stock.
