For your Direct Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print your chosen artwork right on the aluminium composite white-primed surface. The white and bright parts of the artpiece shimmer with a silky gloss but without the glow. The colors are luminous and vivid in the highest definition, the details of the print appear clear and crisp, and there’s a matte look that you can literally feel.
