Unlike the other display options which involve a mounted fine art ink print, infused metal prints involve an entirely different dye sublimation printing technique. Here the image is infused into a polyester coated sheet of aluminum in a high pressure heat press. The dyes sublimate from a solid to a gas, and transfer to the metal print, where they solidify in the polyester coating. The way light shines through the surface coating and through the image itself to a glossy white base gives the metal prints a unique sense of depth and a richness of color. A protective, acid-free black coating is applied to the back of the infused metal and is completed with a black 1/2” recessed backing with concealed French cleat hanger to give it a floating effect when mounted on the wall. Overall depth of product is 2/3” from front face to wall.
Please note that due to the manufacturing process there may be very tiny imperfections in the metal print surface, but these are barely noticeable and don't detract from the dazzling appearance.
Photos are printed on metallic fine art paper, which are then mounted in an acid-free manner to a premium 1/16"-thick sheet of precision cut, hand-polished aluminum. The print is then sealed with a special semi-matte UV laminate, which protects the print and eliminates reflections while maintaining excellent image clarity and contrast. The metallic fine art paper adds extra depth, clarity, and iridescence for a remarkably modern presentation. A recessed 3/4" aluminum backing creates a floating effect by using a simple and secure aluminum French cleat hanging system.
Canvas paper prints are finished in smooth satin for the highest quality and sheen, and are mounted on a backing that consists of a 1/8" acid-free, rigid and lightweight substrate mounted on a 1-1/2" wood stretcher frame. Each canvas print is protected with an acid free, fine art protective coating to give it moisture resistance and UV protection. The sides of the frame are mirrored, although solid colored sides are available upon request. Canvas prints come with a standard aluminum French Cleat hanging system and include instructions for hanging. A wire hanger option is also available upon request.
