mounting photos

2013-02-25 by John

From the old days, I'm used to using dry mount tissue for my
B&W prints.

I noticed that Paul Roark uses dry mount for glossy prints, but not
for matte with carbon (I assume this is for archival reasons).

What are the other preferred mounting techniques for digital B&W?

Thanks!

John P, Digital art papers require different papers than traditional silver
gelatin. I use mount "plastic". I used to use color mount or MT5, but both
failed to  work with modern digital media causing discoloration of the
paper. With HPR 308 it turned it canary yellow. It is a low temp plastic
feeling adhesive that I trim close to size and then mount.  I prefer to just
use hinges but if it needs to go flat and big, it use the adhesive made for
digital prints.
