    What files can I send?

    AI, EPS, PDF, PSD, SVG, PNG, JPG or a ZIP of several files. Vector files give the cleanest result.

    When do I pay?

    Standard orders are paid at Shopify checkout. Quote requests are free; we email a price before any work starts.

    Which layers do I need?

    Most UV jobs need Art and White. Add Clear, Gloss or Build for effects and Primer for glass or metal. Not sure? Choose a common setup or ask in the instructions.
