Mechanical Finishes = Depth and Movement on Aluminum
Are you looking for ways to enhance the decoration for your aluminum badge or trim? Perhaps your design calls for graphics to pop up from the background but you have a limited budget to work with for tooling. Consider using engine stripe in your design.
This Holiday card from 1983 showcases how much depth can be achieved by using a basic mechanical finish on aluminum. Each of the tree trunks in the foreground of the image is enhanced with a vertical engine stripe.
