WoW! That is cool. Love it! Thanks for sharing.

Very good

Im a printer enthusiast (yes I know. And I'm not even making money like the Dyson guy did through his obsession with vacuum cleaners) and am just starting to try mounting this way. I have a laminator coming in the mail, but my attempts to do it manually have made me understand that the cost of getting face mounted images is not unreasonable at all. You can do basically everything right, and it's still not good enough because there's some invisible piece of dust you didn't see or an imperfection in the mounting adhesive that produces bubbles. When it works it looks so amazing. But it's high effort. There's so many little things that can go wrong that are largely out of your control. I assume that often it takes more than one try to get anything done, so if I'm paying for one I'm really paying for potentially two or three of whatever I'm having mounted

what are the things that can largely go wrong that are out of your control?

[@Velereonics]

@@cr34t0r1234 dust and small particles, humidity either leaving moisture on the print itself or warping the clear adhesive sheet (which itself is a very unruly material that seems hellbent on its own destruction) , temperature changes that cause air to expand and bubbles to form where they shouldnt exist, tiny imperfections or particles on the roller etc etc

@@Velereonics so how do all these companies where you order face mounted prints, manage to do it perfectly each time, despite all these "uncontrollable" factors?

[@Velereonics]

@@cr34t0r1234 It depends on what you mean. with really really expensive machines, sure you can mitigate a lot of those issues. That's part of why it's so expensive to get things face mounted (the other part is obviously just that the materials that you face mount on are expensive but yeah) for midsize operations, they can also mitigate some of those problems with more people. if you have three or four people, manipulating the prints is easier, and you can be a lot faster in certain steps which gives you a better shot of making it through without dust getting involved I don't know why you're so indignant like what is making you so mad? dust is essentially uncontrollable in this type of context. because it only takes like literally one tiny particle. it's very noticeable. you can use compressed air you can wipe down the prints and stuff like that but it's like you can look away for one second and one tiny particle can fall on it and fuck it up. also, "optically clear double-sided adhesive" is super fragile and it sticks to literally everything including itself manipulating it in a way that doesn't like crease a significant portion of the roll is really hard to do. it wants to destroy itself. so yes these things are kind of unavoidable like you can do everything possible to avoid them, but they are intangible issues, happening on a scale that's too small, and in a way that is predictable but not that you can really do much about. it's like knowing that there's an asteroid that's going to impact the Earth eventually but not knowing where it's going to come from, or if there's anything you can do to stop it anyway.

Hi, what model Canon printer you using there please? Which Colorado ?

[@ls-artconsulting]

Hey there! We used an EPSON SureColor P9570

[@SamIbrahim-qq5yo]

it would be easier to use the facemount optically clear laminate on a roller table instead of a laminator. I do this everyday by myself with big sheets.
