Chromaluxe Aluminum
We print on 0.042" thick aluminum sheeting by Chromaluxe.
We provide four different and unique finishes listed below.
To see samples of each please contact us!
White-coated Glossy Chromaluxe:
this coating works well with any subject matter in color or B&W. It has a high-gloss surface that emphasizes color and rich detail.
White-coated Matte Chromaluxe:
this coating also works well with both color and B&W imagery, but is more suited to high detail close ups, technical photography, and portraiture. Obviously, the photographer's preference is paramount, but we generally don't suggest matte coating for landscapes, sunsets, space, or underwater subjects.
White-coated Semi-Gloss (Satin) Chromaluxe:
identical to the matte (above) aluminum, except it has a slight mirror effect, similar to white-coated glossy. 50% matte 50% glossy, makes a nice addition to areas that have too much light for the reflective surface of white-coated glossy.
Clear-coated Glossy Brushed Chromaluxe:
if used with the right photograph, our clear coated brushed metal can produce some of the most striking presentations of your images. Any white or light areas in a photograph printed on clear coat will allow the grain and color of the aluminum to "show through," creating a stunning metallic effect that often feels deep and holographic and changes in different lighting situations. This coating is most suited to high contrast B&W and color imagery, particularly landscapes, B&W portraits or anatomical studies, and color or B&W images of machinery, buildings, cityscapes, and vehicles. This coating is not suited well for very dark or mostly black imagery as the metal grain will be less pronounced or unnoticeable
