It is often considered a premium option for displaying photography and contemporary artwork, resulting in a bright, modern, luxurious, and durable finish.
- What are the key features of an Acrylic Print?

BRUSHED OR WHITE METAL PRINTS — SIGNED HUEZO
- Why buy an artwork printed on Metal?
The smooth, matte finish creates a sophisticated look that is perfect for the home or office. The matte surface minimizes reflections, creating a soft and subtle appearance that draws attention to the details of the image. This process is particularly popular for black and white photos, abstract images, or those whose subject already contains metallic surfaces, as it enhances the visual effect. The distinctive effect for Brushed Metal is created because the white or very light areas of the image are not printed, allowing the texture and sheen of the brushed metal to show through the image. Every Metal Print comes with an integrated 3/4-inch back floating frame, ready to hang on your wall.
- What are the key features of a Metal Print?
- Appearance: The result is a unique silvery metallic effect that gives the artwork a modern and industrial look.
- Texture: The texture of the brushed metal, characterized by fine parallel lines, remains visible throughout the image, including in the printed areas.
- Contrast: The metallic sheen of the contrasting surface offers a finish different from prints on other media such as paper or acrylic.
- Substrates: Printing is often done on aluminum composite panels, such as Dibond.
- Durability: The inks used are generally UV and water-resistant, making these prints durable and suitable for indoor or outdoor use.
- What is the difference between Brushed Metal and White Metal?
Brushed Metal and White Metal are both printed on Brushed Aluminum; the printing procedure is the only difference. Specifically, Brushed Metal is printed directly onto the aluminum with all light colors showing the metallic texture. White metal images are printed with a white ink layer underneath, so as not to lose light colors, creating a matte texture with a slight natural grain.
- Are your Brushed or White Metal Prints water-resistant?
Yes, the Brushed Metal or White Metal Print is waterproof; the UV ink technology and this process are water-resistant. The only thing you need to note is that the Back Frame mounting option is wood-based and is not guaranteed to last long in a humid environment; opt instead for using metallic parts as a mounting option or the metal sheet only.
- How do you print on Brushed Metal?
A flatbed printer is used to print directly onto the metal surface at 1200 dpi. To take advantage of the brushed surface, white is absent so that the white in the image becomes the reflective brushed metal surface.
- Can I wash the Metal Print?
Yes, without a problem. Brushed Metal, just like White Metal, is printed with UV inks and is water-resistant.
- What are the main advantages of Metal Prints?
- Water-resistant
- Durable and solid
- Artistic metallic surface
- No frame required
- Can I see examples of Metal Prints?

HD CHROMALUXE PRINT — SIGNED HUEZO
- What exactly is an HD ChromaLuxe Print?
A high-definition print transferred by dye-sublimation onto ChromaLuxe HD metal — museum quality.
This process provides vibrant colors, very sharp details, and great durability. These prints are resistant to water, scratches, and weather, making them ideal for indoor or outdoor use.
- What are the key features of an HD ChromaLuxe Print?
- High Definition (HD): The term “HD” refers to the high resolution and sharpness of the image details, resulting in an exceptional rendition.
- Dye-Sublimation: This is the printing process. Inks are heated to transition directly from solid to gas and are absorbed into a special coating on the metal.
- Durability: The images are not printed on the surface but are integrated into the coating, protecting them from scratches, water, and UV rays.
- Lightweight: Despite their robust appearance, the metal panels are lightweight, which facilitates installation, especially for large formats.
- Finish: Different finishes are available, such as glossy white, matte white, or glossy transparent, to adapt the final look to the image.
- Can I see examples of this product?
- How is HD ChromaLuxe metal printed?
HD ChromaLuxe metal is printed using a compressor that heats the ink onto the ChromaLuxe metal, creating a smooth finish to showcase a highly defined image.
- What type of ink is used for HD ChromaLuxe printing?
Printed with EPSON UltraChrome ink, including fluorescent ink.
- What is the depth of the float; in other words, how far out from the wall does it stand?
The Back Frame Mount or the Floating Frame Box support is approximately 1 inch thick. Thus, your purchase, when hung on the wall, will float 1 inch from the wall.
- How do I clean HD ChromaLuxe Metal Prints?
Unlike other media, ChromaLuxe metal prints are easy to clean. These metal prints can be cleaned with a cloth and any all-purpose cleaner. The cleaner can be sprayed directly onto the surface of the print and then wiped clean with a cloth as needed.
- Why is HD ChromaLuxe printing considered a premium product?
- Vibrant Colors
- Scratch-resistant
- UV + Humidity Resistant
- 60+ years tested durability
- Why buy an HD ChromaLuxe printed artwork?

ChromaLuxe metal prints are the ideal medium for displaying illustrations and photography. These prints will transform domestic or commercial interiors into world-class design experiences.
WOOD PRINTS — SIGNED HUEZO
- What is a Wood Print?
Wood Art Prints made with UV inks on a 3/8-inch (approximately 9.5 mm) birch wood panel feature several key characteristics that distinguish them from canvas or paper prints. White and very light areas are not printed on the wood, revealing the natural beauty of the wood grain, providing incredible image quality resistant to scratches. Colors will not fade over time. Every wood print is unique; the grain and texture of the wood are never the same.
- What are the key features of a Wood Print?
- Natural and Rustic/Modern Look: Birch (Baltic birch plywood) has a fine grain and a light, almost pale (cream or off-white) color. This gives the artwork a look that is both natural and modern.
- Visibility of Wood Grain: The image is printed directly onto the wood without an opaque base layer. The light or white areas of the image will allow the wood’s texture and grain to show through. This adds an organic and unique dimension to each print.
- Rigidity and Flatness: The 3/8-inch wood panel is very stable and rigid, which is its main advantage over canvas. The artwork is much less likely to warp, bend, tear, or puncture over time.
- Longevity: A birch wood print is considered very durable. Birch wood itself is valued for its good dimensional stability.
- Smooth Surface: Baltic grade birch plywood offers a very smooth and uniform surface (unlike a textured canvas), which allows for excellent detail sharpness and faithful reproduction of fine lines.
- No Frame Needed: Due to its thickness, the wood panel is naturally a finished support. The edges (often left natural or painted) become an integral part of the design.
- Lightweight (for a rigid panel): Birch is a relatively light wood compared to other hardwoods, and the 3/8″ (9.5 mm) is a solid but not excessive thickness, offering a physical presence and slight depth to the artwork.
- Do you offer a way to hang a Wood Panel Print?
Yes, every wood print comes with a ¾-inch (19 mm) floating frame at the back, ready to be hung.

SELF-ADHESIVE VINYL PRINTS FOR WALL MURALS
- What exactly is this?
Self-adhesive vinyl printing is a modern decorative solution that combines the high quality of a printed image with the simple installation of a sticker, to create a strong visual impact on walls.
A giant wall mural reproduction is produced by printing sections of an image onto an easy-to-install, glue-free, repositionable self-adhesive vinyl that is then applied directly to a wall like wallpaper. This type of printing allows you to quickly and easily transform a plain surface into a personalized artwork.
- What are the key features of Self-Adhesive Vinyl Prints for Wall Murals?
- Ease of Installation and Removal: Unlike traditional wallpaper, self-adhesive vinyl is applied without glue or complex tools, and it can be removed without damaging the wall or leaving residue.
- Full Customization: It is possible to print high-resolution images, complex patterns, or custom designs onto the vinyl surface, offering great flexibility in terms of decoration.
- Durability: Vinyl is a robust material, resistant to scratches and moisture, making it ideal for high-traffic areas or humid environments. The inks used are also fade-resistant.
- Versatile Finish: The vinyl can be laminated to create different finishes, such as matte or glossy, protecting the print and modifying the visual aspect.
- Varied Applications: Although primarily used for walls, self-adhesive vinyl can be applied to other smooth, non-porous surfaces like furniture, doors, or even glass.
- What type of paper do you use for your Wall Print?
It is not printed paper or wallpaper, but rather a professional-grade self-adhesive vinyl with a canvas texture.
- What is the length of the printed strips?
Generally printed in strips of 30 to 45 inches (76 to 114 cm) wide for easy installation. The width of the strips is defined based on the total format of the project.
- Will my Mural be scratch and water-resistant?
Yes, the eco-solvent ink used for printing on the canvas-textured self-adhesive vinyl is resistant to scratches and fingerprints. You can gently clean your mural with a water-based solution.
