How is the brushed aluminum effect achieved on stickers?

Brushed aluminum material features reflective lines that give it a "brushed" metal effect, ideal for designs with a metallic finish, especially in lighter CMYK colors.


Achieving the Brushed Aluminum Effect on Stickers

The brushed aluminum effect on stickers is created using a special material that mimics the look of brushed metal. This material features fine, reflective lines that produce the characteristic "brushed" texture.

When light hits the surface, it reflects off these lines, giving the sticker a sleek, metallic sheen. This effect is particularly striking on lighter CMYK colors, as it enhances the metallic finish and adds depth to your design. While the brushed effect can be applied to darker colors, it is less visible and impactful.

The brushed aluminum material is perfect for adding a sophisticated and industrial look to your stickers, making them ideal for branding, product labels, and decorative purposes. By using this material, your stickers will have a premium appearance that catches the eye and stands out in any setting.
