The said website also provided typical situations requiring an aqueous coating. They are following:
Your printed piece will be heavily handled: Aqueous coatings will protect your project by providing more scuff resistance than varnishes and still yield brilliant metallic inks. In addition, aqueous coatings won’t yellow with age, as varnishes do.
Your deadline was yesterday: Applying a flood aqueous coating in a job printed on two sides is more time efficient because it is fast drying. There is no drying time required between coating first and second side. Your job can be handled immediately, even in bindery.
When a No. 2 paper doesn’t cut mustard: Aqueous coatings can enhance lesser grade papers by yielding a glossier and smoother finish. A big advantage of aqueous is that it requires only minimal amounts of powder, which yields a better gloss than varnish.
Your printing budget was reduced: Aqueous coating is least expensive coating option. You can print multiple colors plus aqueous coat-coating in one sheet-pass.
