Question
What's the difference between gloss and matte laminated bookmarks?
Answer
Both finishes add a protective film that guards against moisture, fingerprints, and general wear. The visual difference is all about how they handle light.
| Gloss lamination | Matte lamination | |
|---|---|---|
| Surface | Shiny, reflective | Smooth, non-reflective |
| Color look | Vivid, saturated, high contrast | Softer, understated |
| Fingerprints | Less visible | Can show slightly more |
| Feel | Slick | Velvety and refined |
- Choose gloss when you want colors to pop and grab attention.
- Choose matte for an elegant, low-glare finish that photographs and reads cleanly.
