Question about Aluminium prints. I'm in the UK and looking to get a print done here A0 size.
I wanted it on aluminium but after researching it a bit I'm so confused.
From my understanding there is
Chromalux (dye sublimation) - which is only glossy - which I'm ruling out as I want something more satin
Then after this is where I am confused, I see
Dibond - printed directly onto (white and brushed metal)
Dibond - printed onto paper and then put onto dibond
Then I see reviews online of just whats listed as "metal prints" from like bayphoto, but to me they look like the chromalux - they appear to be dye sublimation but have a choice of finishes.
I'm in the UK so I don't have bay photo - so is there an equivalent to these prints in the UK?
Theres photobox - which seem to have Dibond printed directly - good value @ £62
whitewall, which seem to have direct to dibond - at £237
Are these the same?
White wall with the paper print mounted on dibond - £309
White wall chromalux - £390
Then I see reviews online of just what's listed as "metal prints" from like bayphoto, which looks like the chromalux with dye sublimation but has a choice of finishes.
Are these Direct to aluminium good quality? or would I be better sticking with paper print mounted on aluminium / or the chromalux
🤷♂️ please help :)
Thanks - that helps.
I’m wondering, as you say, if I’d notice the difference.
The labs are all online so I’ve not seen these before. Photo box has an a0 for £62 in Black Friday for direct to dibond - im thinking it might be worth taking a punt on just to see it
