Description

100% Archival Boards – Acid Free- Adds Value to Your Artwork. Great for Plein Air Painting – Painting on metal panels has been historically recorded since before the times of Rembrandt, who painted many of his great masterpieces on copper. In the last 20 years, professional artists have been moving towards working on aluminum composite panels (ACP), which feature lighter weights and stronger construction. AlumaComp is widely used for mounting fine art, photographs, linen and canvas to create an incredibly stable painting panel, or to use by itself as a reliable, archival painting strengthen. The brushed aluminum surface takes primer beautifully, providing texture that grips the primer for a perfect bond. The smooth aluminum surface can be utilized as is to profit from its’ beautiful finish, or custom sanded or polished for any texture necessary for your artistic applications. When used as a painting panel, the smooth side can be utilized as the work’s actual highlights for a up to date look— either left bare as is, or sanded/buffed back to the bare metal before varnishing to profit from the metallic glow. Simply peel the screened film used to give protection to both sides, and let your creativity do the rest.
