Will Metal Prints Rust? Understanding Their Durability

Durability is always a major concern when choosing art for your home, office, or outdoor space. While metal prints boast of their brilliant colors and sleek design, along with their long-lasting qualities, one common question would be: Will metal prints rust?

What Are Metal Prints Made Of?

Our metal prints are optimized for photography and engineered to last a lifetime and made by ChromaLuxe which are made from aluminum panels. These are lightweight and strong with great resistance to environmental elements. Unlike other metals, there is no rusting involved with aluminum in the normal sense. Rust is produced by the reaction of oxygen and moisture with iron. Because there is no iron content in aluminum, the results will not rust.

The Protective Coating Advantage

Metal prints are created via a dye-sublimation process where your image is actually infused directly into a specially coated aluminum sheet. That coating adds to the richness of the image, also serving as a protective layer against moisture, UV rays, and scratches.

This makes metal prints ideal for places that are prone to humidity, such as kitchens, bathrooms, or even outdoor spaces. They can withstand moisture and will not corrode or rust over time, even in challenging environments.

What About Outdoor Use?

If you think about outdoor usage, for which you'd probably wonder if they could bear certain weather conditions, your regular metal print is fantastically durable, the ones that are meant to stay outdoors are specially treated with an additional UV-resistant and weather-proof coating that lets them withstand rain and sun along with temperature fluctuations with no wear and tear whatsoever.

Maintenance and Care

Speaking of maintenance, one of the major plus points of these prints is how easy they are to maintain:

• Simply wipe them clean with a damp cloth, since special cleaning agents are not needed.
• Avoid using abrasive materials which may scratch the surface.
• Ensure that any prints to be used outdoors are well mounted to avoid damage from extreme winds or impacts.
  
  

Rust-Free Elegance for Years to Come

Put simply, the metal prints won't rust. The metals used, together with their protective coatings, make the prints among the most durable and versatile of all the art choices. From capturing the picture of the family or showcasing breathtaking views, to bringing vibrant colors through an abstract masterpiece, a metal print brings beauty and durability together, often to last decades.
