Prints on metal are an exciting new way to present your work. Showcased at LA Mobile Arts Festival 2012, this vibrant, dynamic print alternative uses a dye-sublimation process to embed your image directly into a coated aluminium surface. These glossy prints are easy to maintain and impervious to water damage.
Want to print files directly from your computer drive?
ALUMINUM PRINTS are approximately 1/8" thick and are available in 4 surface types:
GLOSSY: The glossy finish prints as if the image is being printed on a white surface. This creates a print that will match your original file, then coats the image with a very high-gloss surface.
SATIN: The satin finish also prints as if on a white surface, but has a less glossy finish.
SHEER-GLOSS: This surface allows the color of the metal to show through in the areas that “white” would normally show though. It creates a very interesting, almost 3D effect to yoru image, but will look quite different from your original file. It is recommended for images that you are wanting to create a more unusual effect with, but not for image that you want to exactly match your original. This version then adds the very high-gloss finish to the final image.
SHEER-MATTE: This surface also allows the color of the metal to show through instead of “white” but uses a matte finish.
MOUNTING BLOCKS are also available for easy hanging and will "float" your work off the wall about an inch.
