Digital BW, The Print

Ted, I would recommend talking to the curator BEFORE you mount and find out
what they want. I'd first look into a reversible heat activated material.
Are these for ink jet or other types of prints? 

 

I doubt that spray mount will be acceptable to the museum, but I don't know
the specifics of what they are for. 

 

Have fun. 

 

Eric

G'day -

Clayton's post about the Bogen dry mount press interests me because I'm
going to have to mount over 100 photos for a museum project and I don't know
whether to purchase a dry mount press or use spray adhesive.

Any suggestions about the Advantages or Disadvantages of each?

Many thanks,

Ted

Hi Sarah,

>You get what you pay for, I guess. Er, sometimes.

Most of the time, in my experience, with few exceptions.

I'm using a 15" Saunders RotaTrim that I got in about 1983 or 84. 
After 20+ years of pretty regular use it works as good today as it did
when new. It's one of the best hardware investments I've ever made.

I've also got a Bogen model 510 dry mount press that's equally well
made - anyone want one of those? ...long silent pause...oh well, sigh.

Regards,
Clayton
