These varnishes often serve as a replacement for spot varnishing and are a more economical choice given the method of application and potential combinations with other technologies; they are also used to produce attractive design effects. The most commonly used types are drip-off varnishing and “orange peel” varnishing.

A matte varnish is first applied in an offset unit for effect using an offset press plate that has specific areas reserved for gloss. A full-coverage high gloss dispersion varnish or full-coverage UV varnish is then applied to react with the previously applied matte varnish. This interaction results in eye-catching effects on these reserved areas such as this orange peel effect, depending on the type of varnish and its application.
