Question
What finishes are available for clear products?
Answer
Clear products come in a few different surface finishes depending on the item, and each one changes how light and color read on a transparent material.
- Glossy: smooth and reflective, makes printed colors pop against the clear background
- Frosted: a soft, etched look that diffuses light and adds an elegant, semi-opaque feel
- Matte: minimal glare and a subtle, understated surface
Because transparency lets the finish show from both sides, the surface you pick has a big impact on the final look. Check the specific product page for the finishes offered, and remember that white ink behind your art helps colors stay solid on a see-through stock.
