The bulk of the card stocks we use for foil blocking are uncoated and textured, which are not ideal for solid foil coverage. Solid foil coverage requires a large amount of pressure to get good foil coverage which can cause heat/bruise marks on the opposite side of the card. In addition, it can also cause the edges to 'flake' when guillotined, creating a poor quality finish. If you seek a full metallic gold, silver or rose gold card, we introduced a Metallic Range of business cards using highly reflective metallic card which can be digitally printed. Many of our customers choose a simple metallic card with their logo in black or white ink for a high end finish. Order one of our Sample Packs to see the results for yourself.
