The invention relates to the field of 
ironwork printing, in particular to a 
metal decorating 
machining technique. The technique includes the following steps: cleaning tinplate with water, and then wiping the tinplate with 
organic solvent to remove dust; arranging bottoming 
coating material on the tinplate, and then treating the tinplate in a 
drying mode; and then respectively arranging white 
coating material on the tinplate and treating the tinplate in a 
drying mode, carrying out yellow 
printing ink printing operation and treating the tinplate in a 
drying mode, carrying out red 
printing ink prinking operation and treating the tinplate in a drying mode, carrying out blue 
printing ink prinking operation and treating the tinplate in a drying mode, carrying out black printing ink prinking operation, treating the tinplate in a drying and vanishing mode, and sending the tinplate into a drying room for drying treatment after the vanishing treatment. According to the 
metal decorating 
machining technique, not only can dust be effectively removed through cleaning, but also the 
organic solvent which is insoluble in water can be effectively cleaned up, the investment in equipment is effectively reduced, the coloring materials can not yellow, and the glossiness is better.
