Question
How would you describe your Standard Finish?
Answer
The Standard Finish is a layer of coating applied after printing on any coated stock. It carries a medium, semi-gloss shine, so it is brighter than a matte or uncoated surface but softer than a full high-gloss or UV coating. Think of it as the balanced middle option that suits most everyday print jobs.
- Applied over coated stock after the ink is laid down, sealing and protecting the printed surface.
- Semi-gloss sheen: colors look crisp and slightly punchy without a mirror-like glare.
- A safe default when you are unsure which coating to choose for cards, flyers, or postcards.
- Choose a gloss, matte, or laminated finish instead when you want a more specific look or feel.
