The method for applying a cast finish to a printed substrate is a method for applying aesthetically pleasing coatings and finishes, including embossed, gloss and holographic finishes and images, to flexible printed substrates, such as packaging, posters, etc. The method involves sealing the ink on a printed surface of the printed substrate with a coating, laminating a film onto the printed surface of the printed substrate, curing the printed surface of the printed substrate with ultraviolet lighting, removing the transparent film from the printed surface of the printed substrate, and moving the printed substrate to a stacking unit. A machine for carrying out the process includes a coating unit, a laminating unit, a film handling unit, a series of ultraviolet lights for curing the coating, a stacking unit for retaining the coated substrates, and a series of belts and rollers for moving the substrates through the machine.
