RE: [Digital BW] Uh oh, Innova Fiba Gloss peeling off of backing board

Does the print lie flat before you mount it?  If not, I would not expect a
PSA to fix that, in spite of how powerful 3M PMA seems to be.

Hi,

I've been using Scotch positionable Mounting Adhesive to mount my
prints for some time without any problems. Recently I noticed that
some prints on Innova Fiba Gloss were peeling away from the backing
board of the mat. I live in South Florida where it can get pretty
humid and not long ago I introduced a dehumidifier in my studio. It
was after this that I discovered the problem.

Could the dehumidifier be the cause or is this just a combination that
won't work because of the stiffness and curl of the paper vs. the
strength of the adhesive or both? Any body have a clue?

Mike
