How to make metallic stickers
Forget boring, ordinary stickers! Make your own unique shiny stickers with our range of metallic colors. Let them shine in gold instead of the yellow tone, or why not in silver instead of the gray color to create a brilliant effect that will stand out. With us, you can choose which metallic color you want.
Step 1: choosing material
Metallic stickers can be ordered by printing on one of these two materials: mirror or brushed aluminum. You choose whether you want the effect on your entire sticker or selected parts.
Here's how it works:
-
The two base materials are silver gray by default: the mirror material with a smooth surface and brushed aluminum with a “raw” brushed surface.
-
Using CMYK colors, you can easily turn the silver gray into whichever metallic you like: gold, bronze, rose gold, steel, and oxidized steel.
-
Brushed aluminum is available with glossy laminate, and mirror with both glossy and matte finishes if you prefer a luxurious, smooth finish.
Remember: The CMYK values and printing process for the two materials remain the same; what matters is the look and finish you want for your stickers.
