    My addition to mounting the photo, use a cardboard or piece of PVC pipe to roll up adhesive backing sort of like a rolling pin. This way the print can lay out nearly flat as you use the braver to press the photo into the gatorboard, and at the same time roll up the backing paper. PVC probably best best easier to keep clean. Just a thought. Great video none the less. I learned an immense amount of info , well done Sir.

But they happened to be a dealer for it. Maybe try your local plexiglass dealer? Try searching for wholesale plastics or foamcore distributors.

    Special tools, materials and coating to prevent contaminating the print. Special expertise necessary for proper handling of the print in the mounting process. Well, I'll save myself stress and probable misery when there's a misstep and pay a pro for this type job. This is definitely NOT for a beginner or first-time effort. If you believe differently, I wish you all the best.
