Matte vinyl with gloss laminate, what results?

[bayshorecreations]

If I print on matte vinyl and over-laminate with gloss laminate what results will I get? Gloss? Satin? Matte?
Anyone do this ever?
Thanks

Gloss, your finished product always takes the finish of your laminate.

You'll get gloss. Finishes aren't additive, whatever the top layer of material is, is the gloss level you'll end up with.

We lam matte vinyl with gloss overlam on a regular basis. I like to heat the top roller a bit to help the adhesive flow. You should achieve the same results as laminating over gloss vinyl. You may see a little more silvering than you would with gloss vinyl, but it'll go away.

A lot of people, including myself find that matt vinyl prints nicer than gloss.

we use matte vinyl and a gloss lam all the time. the matte for us prints much better than gloss, the gloss is alittle grainer so we use a matte and get great results.
