Question

What are Edge Painted Business Cards and how do i set them up?

Answer

Edge Painted Business Cards are ultra-thick 32pt uncoated cards with the exposed edges painted in a color you choose. The painted band around the perimeter creates a bold, premium look that stands out the moment someone holds the card.

  • Stock: ultra-thick 32pt uncoated cardstock
  • Edge: painted in your selected edge color

To set them up, design your front and back at the correct card size with full bleed, keep important text and logos inside the safe area, and pick your edge color when you place the order. Submit print-ready artwork and we handle the painting after the cards are cut.

Edge painting differs from a coating or lamination: it colors only the cut edges, so the faces of the card keep their uncoated feel. To see an edge color before you order, support can send a sample.
