Tech/Engineering - Paper / Paper Manufacturing
English term or phrase: Lick coating
"It also has a special lick coating on the reverse, which gives superior print results compared to standard uncoated reverse sides."

This sentence appears in a press release about a new grade of paper. I have been unable to find any information regarding the French term for "lick coating", so any help will be greatly appreciated !
