Sublimation printing with Wunderboard HD High Gloss aluminium produces incredible depth images. For those that can recall it is similar to the old Cibachrome prints. You really have to view a printed panel to appreciate the quality that can be achieved. That is why this type of metal is considered the ultimate display material.

Not only does it produce incredible colour depth panels it is waterproof, archival, resistant to abrasion, fire and chemicals and certified to ISO 4892-3:2013 for UV resistance. The metal is suitable for gallery and display, high traffic areas and any location with a challenging environment. Panels are available to 24" x 36" and with our in-house routing facility we can cut any size or shape panel you require for your sublimation print system.

Please Note: we strongly recommend using Endura Fabric when pressing HD Metal - due to the high temperatures required to press the panels. The fabric absorbs moisture and protects the edges - which can become slightly brittle and prone to chipping.

• Use Chromaluxe setting in the SG PowerDriver
• Cover the aluminium with "Endura" type fabric
• Press at 190°C, 130 seconds
• Medium pressure
• Allow to cool for at least three minutes to help protect the edges chipping
• When cool peel away tape and paper

Always use Endura Fabric when pressing HD Metal as it removes moisture and helps protect the edges which can become slightly brittle and prone to chipping during pressing.
