| Can anybody tell me what the difference is between Embossed Print and Surface
Print?
I've got 30 bricks (1 x 4 with Car Grille Chrome Pattern) 3010pb035s or 3010pb035e.
I can't see or feel the difference and I don't know how to determine
them.
They look all the same to me.
And what do they mean with embossed? Do they mean raised plastic with a print
on top of it or just a very thick print that feels lumpy?

AFAICT from the ones I have (some of them missing a bit of chrome), ‘embossed’
actually means ‘engraved and filled with paint’.
If you remove the chrome, the pattern is still there.
Easier to tell the difference with the black paint because the chrome is thicker
and you always feel it.

Yeah, the word "embossed" is not being used properly in these item names.
The correct term would either be "debossed" or "engraved".

| On the embossed you can feel a marked difference in levels between the brick
and the surface of the print.
