You just made my first photo printing a whole lot easier with this video! Thank you for always sharing about Bay Photo Lab and for this video. I wouldn’t even know where to start otherwise 😅
Great explanation, Nate! You recommend Bay Photo to me earlier this year and I have been very pleased. I have placed three different orders...each with multiple photos. They do great work! Thank you!
Leaving this to get u more view friend: I'm getting a metal print done for my pops for Fathers Day. Thank you for the comparison of the different surface 👍 He will love it 😃
You nailed it. I’ve printed on all of them. I don’t know what this new chromaLuxe is. Maybe do another video on that. I never print people on the sheet. It looks weird. Black and white pix are amazing on sheer.
Excellent video, thank you. For all the reasons you stated, I print most of my photos on metal with differnet finishes. I would caution using Bay Photo. About four years ago, it took three tries for me to receive a 40x20 metal print that was undamaged during shipment. Needless to say, my client and I were not very happy. I called and made suggestions about how other print houses shipped metal prints without damage during shipment and they did not change their method. A few months later, I met their head of customer service at Imaging USA and shared my frustration and concerns with her. She assured me whe would look into it and get back to me. I am still waiting for a response. Needless to say, I stopped using Bay Photo and will likely not use them ever again. I have since started using White House Custom Color and they have lived up to my every expectation.
Just found your channel. Awesome. I do astrophotography and am getting good at it. I will retire soon and as my next hobby I want to start printing my images on metal. And yes my first metal print was done by bay photo the Lagoon nebula . I live in Northern California so great place for astrophotography. Big question is what printer to buy for this adventure. Thanks great video in that the choices of surface and results plus the deal from bay photo.
I loved doing this with different paper types, glad to hear that Bay Photo has a nice deal with metal types! Are the corners that say what type they are a sticker or permanently on the image?
Hi, I would like to know what material we will use to coat the finished image to make it shine and stand out more. I used a metal sheet for printing, the color dropped a bit.
Have you ever printed anything on metal? How'd it look?
Yes and I love it. Just like you it's my favorite finish. I think is even better than Acrylic.
Just want to enquire about the machine used in printing this metal prints
Can u help me on how to that? And make a business here in Philippines
1:53 - High Gloss 2:24 - Mid Gloss 2:53 - satin 3:52 - Sheer Gloss 5:10 - Sheer Satin
Great walkthrough! What fascinated me was that the satin finish (3rd sample) seem to reveal much more details in the shadows.

best explanation so far, printful could not explain this issue over email

Thank you, I like the Satin.

How do you protect or preserve metal prints?
I loved doing this with different paper types, glad to hear that Bay Photo has a nice deal with metal types! Are the corners that say what type they are a sticker or permanently on the image?
Just a sticker, so these are still fully functional prints you can hang!
Is there such thing as holographic metal prints for ones artwork?
Hi can metal prints go outside on a fence? How do they last in weather? Thanks 🙏🙂
In a living room, where we have some windows -- do you think satin may be better than high gloss? Photo is nature/lots of colors + some people
I definitely do. In a room with lots of windows you'll find high gloss a bit tough to see.
@nateinthewild - is there an updated promo code for bay photo?
where i can find the aluminum plates
What size are you samples?
What kind of aluminum using you sir.
is it chromaluxe ??? or white coated aluminum
Should you over expose your photo a little before printing or no?
You should have kept the thumbnail shot in the video so we can have a good simultaneous comparison.

Hi there. Please watch the video. I do not print these on metal, I am reviewing prints done by BayPhoto Lab.
Sorry, maybe I misinterpreted it. I'm not good at languages 😅😅😅
But your clip is quite useful to me. can be applied in my work.
But what printer do you use to print on metal?
I don't print on metal, I pay a print company to do that.
the promo code NATE50 is not apply....
Code doesn't work
Where do you souce those products, bro? I mean which supplier? Thanks
Please watch the video, it's literally one of the first things I say
Apparently some people need to be hand fed.🤷♂
Dang it looks like that promo isnt valid anymore :(
