not lend itself to gluing. Its main uses are for magazine covers, paperback
covers, brochures and greeting cards.
Mirror Gloss UV Rollercoat Varnish (Foil-Blockable)
Mirror Finish UV Rollercoat (Foil Blockable) Varnish is a universal
high gloss varnish suitable for most applications that involve further processing,
for example, where gluing or foil blocking is required. However this process
is not used for both sides.
Mirror Matt UV Rollercoat Varnish
Mirror Finish Matt Rollercoat UV Varnish is applied all over the printed sheet, giving a high quality matt finish incorporating print protection with good scuff resistance properties, which can be used to great effect on magazine covers, brochures, greetings cards etc. The matt surface can be overprinted with UV gloss screen varnish to give excellent contrast between matt and gloss. Matt rollercoat varnishes not suitable for foil blocking or gluing.
Mirror Gloss UV Spot Varnish
Mirror Finish Spot Varnish is a high gloss UV varnish applied to selected
areas of a printed image to enhance product impact or form part of the graphic
design. This is a Silk Screen Process.
Mirror Sparkle UV Spot Varnish
Mirror Finish Sparkle UV Varnish is a high gloss UV varnish containing
metallised polyester flakes that adds "sparkle" when applied to selected
areas of a printed image and will provide "shelf appeal" to a wide
range of printed products.
Mirror Re-Moist Gum
Mirror Finish Re-Moist Gum is a speciality coating which can be applied
to any printed sheets to enable them to be sealed at a later stage such as
reply coupons and envelopes.
Please note that the final appearance of all Mirror Finish UV Varnishes will be highly dependent on the substrate's smoothness and absorbency.
