Facemounting and Laminating

A facemount or laminate is a great way to display a piece in a contemporary fashion. The print is sandwiched between the facemount or laminate, and a mounted substrate on the reverse side.

• Facemounting is often used for a frameless effect for a very modern feel. Comes in the regular acrylic and non-glare acrylic varities.
• Laminating can be used in the same fashion, however it is also often used in frames without glass as a way to protect the print. Comes in the matte and glossy varieties.

In order to facemount or laminate, the print must have a untextured surface, like a glossy or a metallic print. If the print is textured, air bubbles will get trapped between the materials and create an effect called "silvering."
