✨ Why Finishing Matters for Metal Stickers
When it comes to custom metal stickers, surface finishing isn’t just a final touch — it’s what transforms a basic piece of metal into a durable, premium, and brand-reflective component.
A high-quality finish can:
Improve scratch and corrosion resistance
Create visual textures like matte, glossy, or brushed
Support UV protection and outdoor durability
Match your product’s tone and audience

📌 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What’s the most durable finish for outdoor use?
Anodized and UV-coated finishes are best suited for outdoor applications due to their excellent weather and corrosion resistance.
2. Can I choose more than one finish for the same design?
Yes, we can combine different finishes (e.g. brushed + embossed) on the same piece for multi-texture effects.
