Slightly coarse, totally different

As soon as you hold a fine grit business card, you’ll notice the texture. The lamination is like a very light sandpaper that just catches your fingers a bit, without being uncomfortable in any way. In fact, it’s surprisingly satisfying, making the cards hard to put down. Pair the unique feel with a smooth matte look and you’ve got an unexpected and memorable way to get customers’ attention.

Tactile & tough

Beyond the wow factor of texture, fine grit paper is also one of our most durable, long-lasting options. The lamination coats the paper in a thin, protective layer that prevents smudges and keeps your cards looking great in almost any conditions. (And fingerprint-free, no matter how many hands they pass through). They’re built to go anywhere – and take your business to new places, too.

Arrived ahead of schedule, and the design turned out exactly as I envisioned.

Great texture

Good quality, thick card. Picture was a little grainy due to the type of card so would recommend no pictures on them.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We are glad to hear that you were happy with the texture and thickness of the fine grit business cards. Yet, we understand your observation about the image appearing slightly grainy. Due to the textured surface of this paper stock, designs that include photos or fine image details can sometimes appear less sharp compared to smoother finishes. If you feel the result is not as expected or if you would like us to review it further, please feel free to reply to this email with clear photos showing the issue on the received cards. Our team will be happy to take a closer look and assist you accordingly. We appreciate your insights, as they are helpful both for us and for other customers when selecting the most suitable material for their designs.

Navigation and print job was Bad

This is my second review for the same issue. On every 7th card there’s a white stripe, making part of the batch unusable. I was contacted after my first review and asked to provide an image, which I am now. However, there was no link to update my original review, so I had to navigate thought your website searchin for the review section again to leave another one. Between the print defect and the poor navigation/support flow, this has been frustrating to deal with.

Frequently asked questions

Fine grit business cards (also known as sandpaper business cards) are made from thick paper stock, with a synthetic lamination over it. This is what creates the slightly coarse, sand-like texture.

Our fine grit paper is 16pt, somewhat thicker than a typical business card. To give you a frame of reference, each point (pt) is equal to 0.001 of an inch.

Not at all! The cards feel like fine sand, and while they will catch your fingers as you touch them, it’s not rough or abrasive in any way.

No, we can't add special finishes to the fine grit lamination. But this special texture is designed to stand out on its own!
