Metalography

1. How is my photograph printed on metal?

When you send us your photo we will print a transfer paper with special hybrid dyes that are then infused into a patented coating using both pressure and heat.

2. Are the metal prints waterproof?

Metal prints are waterproof making them the ideal choice for moist environments like kitchens, bathrooms, and retail environments.

3. Why would I want to choose a metal print instead of metallic paper?

The two mediums are often confused, but completely different. Metallic paper is still a paper product, which lacks the archival longevity and ability to hang your artwork in areas of high moisture, or without a protective glass covering.

4. How do you hang a sheet of metal. Is it heavy?

You have many hanging options available due to the rigidity of the metal. In reality, the prints are incredibly lightweight!
