Thin film aluminum evaporation

This portfolio piece highlights INAC’s thin-film aluminum evaporation technique, condensing a wide range of the company’s decorative capabilities into a single sample. The result demonstrates how vapor deposition finishing can be combined with painting and other surface treatments to achieve a high level of visual expression.

Controlling Film Thickness for Unique Visual Effects
A key advantage of thin-film aluminum evaporation is the ability to select the thickness of the deposited coating. When kept thin, the film functions like a half-mirror — the internal shape of the model becomes visible when light is applied, while the exterior retains a metallic appearance under normal conditions. This light-responsive quality makes the technique well-suited for design samples, exhibition models, and parts where visual impact matters.

Finishing Variations Available
INAC offers a broad range of aluminum evaporation options to suit different design requirements:

• Standard aluminum vapor deposition (mirror-finish metallic appearance)
• Half-mirror vapor deposition (semi-transparent effect with thinner film)
• Matte satin plating (subdued, low-gloss finish)
• Color plating combined with color clear coating

Composite decorations combining evaporation with painting and masking are also available.

Applicable to a Wide Range of Projects
Whether the goal is a striking exhibition mock-up, a design review sample, or a decorative component for presentation purposes, INAC’s finishing capabilities can be tailored to meet the specific visual and functional requirements of each project.
