Semi-gloss or luster products feature less glare than a gloss finish, without muting colors in the print. Matte/ Non-Reflective Matte Matte/ non-reflective matte film products soften images and reduce glare. Matte finishes are ideal for applications viewed under lights and those requiring a distinctive soft look.
