What Is the Difference Between 3D Gel and 4D Gel Plates?
3D Gel Plates
3D Gel Plates feature characters that are slightly raised from the plate surface, creating a subtle but noticeable three-dimensional effect. These plates provide an enhanced visual appeal compared to standard flat plates.
4D Gel Plates
4D Gel Plates take it a step further with more prominently raised characters, offering a more pronounced 3D effect. The characters on 4D Gel Plates are typically made from individual acrylic pieces layered on top of the plate, resulting in a more striking and luxurious appearance compared to 3D Gel Plates.
