Question

How can I ensure the best results on Raised Spot UV orders?

Answer

For the best results on Raised Spot UV orders, keep the UV coverage under 30% of the card area. When too much of the surface is coated in raised UV, the cards can stick together and press into a solid block during production.

  • Keep coverage under 30%: the sweet spot for a clean raised effect
  • Too much coverage: cards can stick together and form a block
  • Use it as an accent: apply raised UV to logos, text and highlights rather than large fills
  • Reserving raised UV for key elements also makes them pop against the rest of the design
