4. What are the main film “finishes”?

   Gloss - a very shiny / glossy surface (highlights colours and makes your materials pop);

   Matt - aimed at achieving a very flat look, often with a silky feel (often mutes colours);

5. What are the standard film sizes used by Celloglazing.com?

   The rolls of Celloglaze film used by Celloglazing.com are 310mm wide & 445mm wide and come in lengths of 1,000m , 2,000m & 3,000m (on 76mm core);

6. What are the standard Page Sizes Celloglazed by Celloglazing.com?

   Celloglazing.com provide celloglazing service on paper sizes from SRA3 to oversize A2 (130gsm to 350gsm);

7. How should my page be supplied for celloglazing?

   When supplying pages for celloglazing, there should be a 10mm grip area on all sides of the page to allow the celloglazing machines to provide an optimal finish.  The process of celloglazing applies the celloglaze film to the pages within the borders of a page, which will be fully finished (trimmed, scored etc) after the celloglazing process (see diagram below);

   Each individual job should be supplied with 10 over sheets of the same size & weight paper as the celloglazing process does have some attrition at the start & end of each run;

   Please note: The process of celloglazing involves heat, pressure and glue. Whilst exercising every care in completing your job we can not be held responsible for damage to originals or copies.

8. Why does Celloglazing.com want to know the make & model of the printer used to produce the materials being celloglazed?

   The make & model of the printer used to produce the printed material will have an impact on the type of film used during the celloglazing process.  Some printers are oil based and these types of printers require the use of Digital Celloglaze films;

   If the wrong film type is selected, the celloglaze may peel off the pages of the job after the celloglaze process.

9.  Why doesn't Celloglazing.com use Digital Celloglaze for all jobs?

   There are cost variations in the different celloglaze film types (the digital films are more costly than the offset films) and to ensure we offer the best price, we match film types to celloglazing jobs based on the type of printer used to produce the materials being celloglazed.

10.  Why does Celloglazing.com ask for over's?

   The process of celloglazing involves heat, pressure and glue. Whilst exercising every care in completing your job there is generally some wastage involved in the production setup of a job.

   Celloglazing.com does not charge our customers for spoiled sheets in the job run.  Our charge model is based on the final yield of successfully celloglazed materials returned to you.

11. How is film thickness measured?

   Film thickness, or gauge, is measured in microns (or μm). There are 1000 microns (or μm) to a millimetre.

   The Digital Films used by Celloglazing.com are 40, 42.5 & 43 microns whilst Offset films are 26 micron & 28 micron.
