Which one
- Foil Business Cards: real metallic gold or silver foil pressed onto a thick 16pt laminated card, on the front or both sides.
- Spot UV Business Cards: a clear gloss layer on your logo or a pattern, over matte or soft touch lamination on 16pt card: it catches the light and you can feel it.
- Soft Touch Business Cards: soft touch lamination on both sides of a 16pt card: it feels like velvet, resists fingerprints and makes color look deep.
- Painted Edge Business Cards: an ultra thick 32pt card with its edges painted a solid color.

Setting up foil and spot UV
Foil and spot UV take two files: your full color design, and a second file that marks where the foil or the gloss goes in solid black, with the rest white. Keep them 0.2 in (5 mm) inside the trim line, foil text over 8 pt, and spot UV off small text, since it can shift about 1/16 in. Each product page's File setup tab shows how, and we check both files and send a proof before anything prints.
