I'm doing some legwork on a new deck project and I just wanted to gauge preferences on the finish of your playing cards. Is it kind of a given that everybody prefers linen/air cusion etc. Over the smooth plastic. I never gave a thought to plastic coated until I bought some "special" Fournier 505 decks. They're not bad and not impossible to use for basic sleights. Would a smooth deck be a deal breaker for the potential magician target audience?
Thanks! Dave |

I would only use the smooth finish if it was more of an "art" deck to be looked at. If you plan to use the cards for play / magic it is best to stick to an embossed finish. That is what people know and expect.

I prefer air-cushion finish, because it doesn't stick that much as with smooth finish overtime.
