Selon le procédé, une clé de retouche par codage (ESI) spécifique et une clé de retouche par décodage (DSl) associée sont générées, le produit complémentaire (40) est retouché au moyen de la clé de retouche à codage (ESI) spécifique, et le produit partiel (30) à protéger est retouché au moyen de la clé de retouche à décodage (DSl) associée, de sorte que le produit partiel (30-1) retouché génère en coopération avec le produit complémentaire (40-1) retouché l'effet visuellement perceptible prédéfini (24), et, en coopération avec un produit complémentaire (40) non retouché ou un produit complémentaire (40-2) retouché au moyen d'une autre clé de retouche à codage, ne génère pas l'effet visuellement perceptible prédéfini. Le produit partiel à protéger fournit une structure en relief pourvue d'une pluralité d'éléments de grille et le produit complémentaire modifie le comportement de réflexion de la surface estampée de la structure en relief.
