Spot Gloss makes your business cards pop. The shiny finish highlights key parts of your design, creating a striking contrast with the smooth Soft Touch coating. Get creative with your design. Whether you go for minimal accents or a full-on dynamic pop, your card will stand out from every angle. With Spot Gloss on both sides, you’ll leave a lasting impression, every time.
Spot Gloss Process
Spot Gloss is a layer that can be added to the surface of your business card, giving it a clear and shiny appearance. It allows you to highlight important aspects of your design or create subtle details that catch the eye in the light.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create my Spot Gloss file?
Creating your Spot Gloss file is easy. We recommend using Adobe Illustrator. You can choose to have your card either single or double-sided.
- Create Your Design: Start with your main design as usual.
- Add a Spot Gloss Layer: Create a new layer specifically for Spot Gloss. On this layer, use solid black to mark the areas where you want the glossy effect to appear (such as logos or text).
- Save the File: Once you’re happy with your design, save the file as an EPS or PDF.
That’s it! You’re all set to make your card shine.

Can I apply Spot Gloss to the entire card?
Spot Gloss is all about highlighting specific areas, so it’s best used to emphasize details like logos, text, or certain design elements. Covering the entire card in Spot Gloss might reduce the impact of the effect. It’s the little details that truly shine!
What’s the best line stroke and font size for Spot Gloss?
Your Spot Gloss can be as thin as .125", but thicker lines generally work better. We recommend .2" for optimal results. For fonts, 10pt or larger works best, and thicker fonts ensure the Spot Gloss effect is clear and consistent.
Can you produce Spot Gloss with specialty Embossing or Foiling?
Yes! We can definitely add some extra flair with luxurious foil stamping or embossing. Combining Spot Gloss with either of these effects will make your cards stand out even more. Want something special? Request a custom quote here: https://www.jukeboxprint.com/quote

Yes, Spot Gloss isn’t just for business cards. You can add it to a variety of printed items like postcards, gift card holders, hang tags, and more. It’s perfect for highlighting specific areas of your design, whether you want to add a touch of shine to logos, text, or any details you want to stand out. Ready to get started?
