GlossKote keeps costs down while producing super gloss and excellent rub and scuff resistance. It is ideal for magazines, paperbacks, brochures, annual reports, greeting cards, directories or anywhere an eye catching glossy front cover is required. As it is a liquid coating, the substrate needs to have sufficient hold out for the gloss coating to stand on top and be effective. GlossKote makes it possible for a premium gloss finish for high volume and cost conscious projects. It is also available in GlossKote Gluable providing the same high gloss finish with enhanced glueability suitable for your packaging needs.
