For
a long time there has been significant debate in the industry about the various
mounting choices available to the commercial framer or photographer.
At the heart of the issue is the question of what type of adhesive to use
and what techniques, procedures and systems should be employed for the specific
adhesive chosen. The overriding
concerns are, of course, that the adhesive in question does the best job
possible and that it is economical to use.
Our
acid-free SURE MOUNT®
universal mounting adhesive answers all the fundamental concerns and
requirements of today’s professional – PLUS!
In addition to providing an economical, top quality bond to virtually all
common mounting materials, including “chipboard” and fabrics, SURE MOUNT® remains reversible at all times, is
acid-free/pH neutral, will not age or undergo harmful decomposition, is
unaffected by heat or humidity, contains no solvents, requires no ventilation,
is non-toxic and completely safe to use, sets up quickly for immediate framing
and sale, and, best of all, SURE MOUNT®
offers the widest choice possible of application. Roll, brush or spray SURE
MOUNT® to suit your individual production needs.
SURE
MOUNT®
provides the ultimate in low-cost/high-volume mounting when used in conjunction
with a vacuum press. If you don’t
presently have a press, SURE MOUNT® can be used in combination with a brayer
and/or be left to dry under weighted glass with excellent results.
As your mounting volume increases, you may want to add a top quality,
professional PRINT MOUNT VACUUM PRESS for a thoroughly integrated mounting
system. With the vacuum press,
drying/set time is reduced, the adhesive is distributed evenly and air bubbles
and wrinkles disappear simply and quickly in one time-saving step.
Whether
your mounting needs are large or small, if you’re mounting posters or
photographs, canvas or silk, paper stock, foamboard or SURE
MOUNT® wood, will provide the economical bond you demand.
Order today and see why SURE MOUNT®
is the all-purpose mounting adhesive
for the picture framing and photographic industries.
