Blue Steel Blues

CLEAR GLOSS

The Clear Finishes produce an image where the silver of the aluminum shows through instead of any white. There is no white in the final print, but instead a metallic sheen that shows through instead, creating a unique and interactive artwork that plays off of the light reflecting onto its surface. The Clear Gloss finishes picks up the most reflection and plays with reflective light bouncing off of the image to illuminate it.

Attributes:

Glass-Like Finish | Silver Aluminum showing through | Vibrant | Reflective

Detail

The loss of bright whites to contrast against the color and tonal range of an image creates a softer overall feel that focuses more on the iridescence of the metal surface. Colors and Black translate vibrantly, and negative areas become metallic silver.

Vibrancy

Highly reflective surface.

Glossy finishes are best suited for controlled lighting conditions where glare can be minimized. In environments with direct light or windows, reflections on the glossy surface can sometimes obscure the image, but with this unique finish can also provide unique and interactive shine.

CLEAR MATTE

The Clear Finishes produce an image where the silver of the aluminum shows through instead of any white. There is no white in the final print, but instead, a metallic sheen shows through, creating a unique and interactive artwork that plays off the light reflecting onto its surface. The Clear Matte offers an anti-reflective surface with the least reflectivity to the surface but still plays with the sheen of the silver showing through.

Attributes:

Rich in Color | Silver of the Aluminum Showing Through | Anti-Reflective

Detail:

The loss of bright whites to contrast against an image's color and tonal range creates a softer overall feel that focuses more on the radiance of the metal surface. Colors and Black translate vibrantly, and negative areas become metallic silver.

Anti-Reflective:

The matte finish significantly reduces glare, making it easier to view images from any angle without the distraction of reflections. This is particularly advantageous in brightly lit environments or where lighting conditions cannot be controlled.

Archival

65+ Years Archivability according to Wilhelm Imaging Research and Rochester Institute of Technology permanence tests.

Scratch Resistant

Dyes are infused beneath the exterior coating through sublimation. This makes it more durable than traditional paper and canvas imaging because it can’t be scratched or peeled off the surface.

Modern Finish

The surface of the aluminum comes in a variety of finishes. A truly flat surface allows the viewer to experience the artwork at the surface level without additional glazing.

Wipeable Artwork

No need to worry about fingerprints or blemishes on the surface. A microfiber cloth and household cleaner can be used to clean dye sub prints. Perfect for public spaces and other high traffic areas.

Light Weight

Though extremely rigid and durable, the recycled aluminum is light weight and easy to hang. A 40x60" panel with an aluminum float backing weighs approximately 13lbs.

Durable

Composed of anodized aluminum, ChromaLuxe sheets are rigid as well as flexible. The substrate can be bent at a 90 Angle while retaining its structure. Aluminum can be reinforced from the back of the panel to add extra durability for indoor and outdoor art displays. Aluminum Sheets Thickness: .045" (1.14 mm)

Display Options

Single aluminum is rigid and protected, which allows a wide range of mounting and framing options. Unlike paper, which requires a glazing overtop. Dye-sub aluminum is the most versatile substrate for display, with unique mounting and framing options.

Sublimated aluminum can be displayed in a traditional, contemporary float frames, suspended off the wall using an inset backing, or used with standoffs in the corners for a more industrial look.

Vibrant Colors

Dye sublimation technology allows for creating vibrant, long-lasting colors that are resistant to fading and discoloration over time. Using dyes allows for greater contrast and D-Max. Color translates deeper & richer colors thanks to inkjet dyes.

Resistant To Chemicals & Bacteria

Proprietary coatings utilized on all ChromaLuxe print media provide a surface resistant to all forms of chemicals, bacteria*, contaminants, and pathogens.

Fire Retardant

Sublimated aluminum is resistant to high heat, so artwork can be hung in specific corporate and public environments that meet today’s fire-rated standards.

No Glazing Required

After the heat transfer process, the artwork is completed. No additional UV Acrylic or Glass is needed to protect the artwork.

Recycled Aluminum

ChromaLuxe aluminum is produced by 90% Recycled aluminum, and it’s 100% Recyclable after sublimation. Manufactured in the United States

Large Format

The largest single aluminum panel can be produced at 48x96". Multiple panels can be joined and braced together in the back to create larger installations.

Outdoor*

Chromaluxe EXT aluminum has been specifically formulated for outdoor installations. Resistant to temperature and humidity fluctuations. *Requires custom order.
