Artistic play of colors of flowing pigments

Like watercolors, the pigments penetrate the layer structure and leave behind a play of colors with amazing effects. Hot water finally seals the fine-pored surface and the pigments are deeply anchored in the aluminium. The so-called “sealing” locks the colors into the surface in a long-lasting and protective way.
