It just paper that has been laminated with metalized 1.7mil laminate. The. Laminate is treated to be printable. It suppose to have the same effect if you were printing with metalic inks.

As i said, paper with metallic surface of 1micron. a thin aluminiumfilm for high class paper, for beverage label.
Years ago I did it for german breweries. If you print yellow on it, it looks like gold. Blue and yellow turns to a beautyful greenmetalic.
But if you dont need the metal effect, you have to print white first.
By loading paperstacks be carefull, edges are sharp as knifes.

One producer was Schoeller & Hoesch, now http://www.glatfelter.com/products/metallized_films_papers/default.aspx

Rossio is right unless your looking for a metallic look you need to lay down white first we have certain jobs where a double hit of white is required. And also dried before any other colors lay down . Makes for a real clean image.
