Posted By Photography Talk

Printing images on metal is now popular among interior designers and photographers for the right reason! Metal prints are stunning, and, based on the metal Print you choose--we have three different options! They can be incorporated into almost any design style for your home. Another benefit of printing your image with metal print is the long-lasting nature of the item. But do the best metal prints fade? Yes, they do. Here are the reasons and how you can save your frames from fading:
There is no exception
There's not a single form of art you can expose to direct sunlight without showing signs of fade over time. Metal prints aren't an exception. In that regard, Posterjack Metal Prints can resist fading for 100plus years and 200plus years when displayed in normal lighting conditions, including some but not always direct sunlight.
HD Metal Prints
With a fade resistance of 100+ years, HD Metal Prints were produced by a process known as dye-sublimation. The result is that your image is reverse-printed with unique transfer dyes and papers. It is then layered over the Chromaluxe metal panel coated with a particular substance. Utilizing a heat press at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, sublimation dyes are transformed into a gas and then transferred to metal at a molecular level. Because the shades are infiltrated and incorporated into the metal, your HD Metal Print won't fade, crack, peel, or peel under normal circumstances.
Reduce the rate of fade to a minimum
Thus, while metal prints may discolor over time if exposed to intense light, you can display them at home in normal lighting conditions and be sure that 100 or more years later, they'll look exactly as sharp and vivid as the day you purchased them. This is if you opt for the Posterjack Metal Print. The materials and methods used to produce metal prints impact how long they'll last; therefore, make sure you go for the top quality!
