What is metal coat and how durable is it?
Artistic Illusions uses a patented metal coat that is 95% real metal. It is not a mixture of ceramic, polymers, or metal flakes. It takes a paticular multistep process to achieve the luxurious look and quality that Artistic Illusions offers. Unlike powder coating and electroplating, metal coat can be applied over virtually any substrate and is much stronger than either of the other two processes. It can withstand 1500 PSI without pulling away from its substrate. Once cured, metal coat has the characteristics of cast metal including texture, luster, and heat conductivity. It provides the look, feel, and durability of solid cast metal without the expense and weight.
