Framing a print on very thin paper, by natstan on Sept 29, 2015 14:12:52 GMT 1, I have a non-conformist 'last supper' print which is on very thin receipt paper. Can anyone offer some advise on whether I can have them floated mounted using water activated japanese hinging paper? I am worried the hinges may show through the paper and worst, the water shrinks the paper at the hinging spots. This is a diy framing project, thanks.

Framing a print on very thin paper, by non-conformist on Sept 29, 2015 14:56:07 GMT 1, Mr Frameman did a very good job for me. He somehow sandwiched (without damaging it) the print between two bits of glass (Museum for front and regular for rear). The rear image does not have to be visible (as it bleeds into the front) so you can mount as you would regulary.

Framing a print on very thin paper, by Deleted on Sept 29, 2015 15:52:10 GMT 1, The idea of sandwiching the paper between two thin perpex or even thick sleeves is a good idea (depend of the size though).

How did he attach the back of the print to the rear glass to prevent it from slipping?

Framing a print on very thin paper, by non-conformist on Sept 29, 2015 22:30:01 GMT 1, I'm not too sure as the print went straight to the gallery and has since sold. Possibly something similar to clear photo / stamp fixings. It wasn't noticeable though
