How to Care for and Display Metal Prints: A Collector’s Guide
Share
Metal prints are more than a modern trend — they’re a lasting way to experience art. When collectors ask how to care for their Linares Fine Art limited-edition prints, I’m happy to tell them: they’re incredibly durable and easy to maintain.
Here’s a simple guide to help you enjoy your metal artwork for a lifetime.
1. Why Metal Prints Are So Durable
Each piece is created using a dye-sublimation process, where the image is permanently infused into a specially coated aluminum surface.
This technique makes the artwork:
-
Waterproof and scratch-resistant
-
Fade-resistant, even in bright light
-
Easy to clean and maintain
Because the image becomes part of the metal itself, it won’t peel, bubble, or discolor over time — even in humid environments like Florida.
2. Cleaning Your Metal Print
Maintenance couldn’t be simpler:
-
Wipe gently with a soft microfiber cloth to remove dust.
-
For fingerprints or smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild glass cleaner.
-
Avoid harsh chemicals or paper towels, which can dull the finish.
No polishing or special sprays are needed. Just a light touch now and then keeps your print looking luminous.
3. Display Tips for Maximum Impact
Metal prints are designed to glow with changing light — it’s part of their magic.
To bring out their best qualities:
-
Display where natural or accent light can reach the surface.
-
Avoid direct, constant sunlight for years at a time to preserve maximum color.
-
Skip the glass or frame — the surface itself is protective, clean, and contemporary.
Each viewing angle and light source transforms the piece slightly, adding life and motion to your wall.
4. Hanging Your Metal Print
Every Linares Fine Art wall print comes ready to hang, using a float mount or aluminum back frame that creates a sleek, shadowed “floating” effect.
To install:
-
Mark your spot with a level and pencil.
-
Use a wall screw or anchor (depending on the surface).
-
Hang and adjust for alignment — that’s it!
If you prefer professional installation, I offer art hanging services throughout Florida to ensure perfect placement.
5. Longevity and Value
Metal prints are made to last for generations. Combined with a limited edition of only 250 prints per image, each piece holds both emotional and collectible value.
This format ensures your art maintains its brilliance — and your investment retains its authenticity.
