Tarjetas de visita con UV selectivo

Spot UV — also called spot gloss or spot varnish — is a clear coating applied to specific areas of a printed card. The coated areas become glossy while the surrounding matte surface stays flat, creating a visible contrast that highlights your design elements.

Flat spot UV sits flush with the paper. The shine is visible when light hits the card at the right angle, but the surface feels smooth. Raised spot UV builds the clear coating into a physical layer above the paper — approximately 50 microns tall — creating a tactile edge you can feel with your fingertips.

Both effects work best on matte laminated papers. Silk laminate provides a smooth, even contrast with the gloss. Soft touch laminate provides a velvet texture that makes the raised gloss feel even more dramatic by comparison. Combining spot UV with metallic foil on the same card creates a layered premium finish — glossy, metallic, and matte textures all in one.
