Specialty Screen Printing
Special Effects Clear + HD Clear Gel




Sometimes the boldest effect is one you only notice up close. Special Effects Clear and HD Clear Gel create glossy, dimensional finishes that add depth and style without extra color. These clear inks transform ordinary prints into premium, retail-ready designs with a subtle but striking look.
How It Works
- Special Effects Clear: A versatile glossy overlay that adds sheen and highlight to existing prints. Perfect for tone-on-tone effects or layering over colors for a polished finish.
- HD Clear Gel: A thicker, high-density formula that creates a raised, glossy texture with a “wet look.” Great for simulating water, glass, or high-shine finishes.
Both options can be printed on their own for subtle tonal designs or layered with color to enhance depth and contrast.
Why Choose Clear & HD Clear Gel?
- Gloss & Shine – Adds a premium, high-end finish to your designs.
- Dimensional Texture – From smooth gloss to raised HD detail, you get depth you can feel.
- Versatile Effects – Works for tonal prints, accents, or full glossy coverage.
- Retail-Ready Look – Elevates designs to feel polished, modern, and professional.
