Soft Touch Laminated Business Cards 20pt - Clubcard Printing USA

Soft touch laminated business cards have a pleasant velvet finish similar to the feel of a peach. While luxuriously soft these 20 point thick business cards are also sturdy and durable.

 

Soft touch business cards have a subtle matte appearance and are printed in full color on the Indigo press which is ideal for cards with heavy ink coverage and for consistent color on multiple card orders and reprints.


Make the worthwhile choice of soft touch laminated business cards, hand out a card that exudes the substance and luxury your name and brand represents.

Proofs Do Not Include Lamination

Because of the additional step required, printed proofs do not include lamination.

Does Lamination Dull The Colors?

Like any lamination, soft touch lamination will dull or mute the colors when applied.

Does Lamination Help Protect The Cards?

Soft touch will be more durable and protect the ink from rubbing off especially with heavy coverage.

Can I Use Small Fonts On Soft Touch Cards?

The minimum recommended text size is 6pt. With any small text, if grey use a black ink only version; if black, use 100% K.

Can I Use Thin Lines On Soft Touch Cards?

Anything thinner than a hairline stroke (0.25") - even at 100% K may look choppy when printed due to Indigo print resolution.

Is Indigo Resolution Different From Offset?

There is a screen to the Indigo print which customers should be aware of if they're comparing to traditional offset printing.

Should You Use Rich Black On Indigo Cards?

Don't use rich black on Indigo printing. 100% K will be just fine.

What Is The Difference Between Soft Touch and Silk Lamination Cards?

Soft Touch Lamination is different than our Silk Lamination, it feels very similar to a peach. If you are unsure, ask us for some free samples.

Can I Write On Soft Touch Cards?

Coated cards aren't ideal for writing on. If this is a big deal, check out our uncoated card stock options.

Can Greys Can Shift?

CMYK Process colors in the grey range and de-saturated images can shift in color throughout the print run and may cause the greys to appear either cooler or warmer. For a neutral grey, we recommend converting all grey values and de-saturated images to true greyscale consisting of K (black) only values.

Is there color variation on solid blue?

Depending on the color value, you may experience color variation in solid fills of blue colour. For great blue results we recommend a 30% difference between your Cyan and Magenta levels to ensure a nice rich dark blue, rather than purple.
