Why use this effect?
- Creates a wet look to highlight ‘fresh and cold’ appeal

- Perfect way to highlight certain parts of the can
Things to know

- It is possible to match special colors to a target*
- Tactile elements should be placed in the main body of the can
- We recommend design ideas are submitted to ensure the final artwork is feasible*
