A specialized formulation utilized in textile and graphic printing, this material imparts a metallic, gilded appearance to the printed substrate. Composed of fine metallic particles suspended in a binder, it is applied using stencils to create designs on surfaces such as fabric, paper, and plastic. For example, it can be used to add a luxurious touch to apparel, promotional items, or artistic prints.
The employment of this type of media provides visual enhancement and perceived value to the final product. Historically, achieving a gold-like effect required expensive and complex processes. This modern solution offers a more cost-effective and readily accessible method for replicating that aesthetic. The resulting prints exhibit a reflective sheen and a durable finish, contributing to the longevity and impact of the design.
