Spot UV is a clear gloss finish applied to selected areas of a printed surface. It can draw attention to a logo, image or pattern through contrast with the surrounding material. The effect should be planned around the actual surface rather than treated as a substitute for printed colour.
Provide the print artwork with a separate, clearly marked gloss area. Explain which details should stand out and whether the design depends on a matte surrounding finish. Ask for the substrate, placement and sample expectations to be reviewed before the specification is final.
Spot UV is placed only in selected design areas. A full-surface coating covers the specified surface more broadly. The choice depends on the visual contrast and protection requirements of the product.
It can highlight details on book covers, brochures, stationery and packaging. Share the product and material so the specific application can be checked with the design.
