When we say this paper is smooth, we mean Kenny G, Saxophone solo smooth. Compatible with most digital presses and with excellent dot definition, it’s still unclear if we’re talking about Primalith™ Silk or one of his velvety 90’s tunes.

With its excellent runnability and quick (ink) set off, you’d think we were going on about the New England Patriots’ offense. Primalith™ Matte never ceases to perform with the same calm, unflappable poise of a true Super Bowl MVP.

Save the satin for this paper and leave that not-so-breathable fabric off your body and back in 1984. With its strong surface and vibrant ink holdout, Astrolith™ Satin is just as memorable as that bad prom dress from the 80’s you’d love to forget. But with time comes the wisdom that all materials shouldn’t be worn to awkward teen dances, and instead, should be printed on.

Online dating profile for Astrolith™ Matte:
Matte, 34 years old — superior surface (I’m good-looking), proven on-press runnability (I’ve been in long term relationships), and bindery performance (I call my mom every Sunday). My weight fluctuates, but I’m always 6’2″. (BTW – my friends Gloss and Satin are single too).
