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.
