Cold liquid metal

Being cold is an essential character of Metalier cold liquid metal. It’s essential for a number of reasons. You can read all the reasons for choosing Metalier liquid metal here.

Because it’s cold, Metalier liquid metal can be sprayed on the most unlikely of surfaces including polystyrene. It can be sprayed through lace fabric and on to delicate substrates that would be destroyed by a hot or molten process. This is one of the features that gives Metalier its versatility. The leaves in the pattern in the picture would have been destroyed if a hot process had been used.

Smooth surfaces

If a smooth surface is required Metalier liquid metal is sprayed using conventional cold-spray equipment. If you want a textured finish, you mix the metals and binder together and then trowel or pour it onto the substrate. Whether the mixture can be poured or not depends on how thick it is. And thickness is governed by the type of texture you are creating. A heavier texture will require a thicker mix.

Moulds

In addition our liquid metal can be moulded. As you might imagine, cold-casting is much faster and much less expensive than foundry metal. It’s also a lot less dangerous to work with and – surprise – you don’t get hot working with it.

Metalier liquid metal finishes when cured are cold to the touch. They are cold just as sheet metal or foundry metal is cold to the touch. If you have any doubt that you are touching a real metal coating – give it the touch test. If it’s cold it will be genuine. If it’s not, it will be paint.

Seamless

Another essential feature of Metalier is that it is seamless – that means application is not limited by the size of the substrate sheet. In fact – no limitation is at the heart of liquid metal coating. You can create virtually anything on virtually any substrate of virtually any size. What more could you want?
