Creased print advice, by ratboy on Jun 10, 2009 12:50:13 GMT 1, Hi - not sure if I'll get much of a response today...but
I recently had a Blu print framed, looks good but I think it's starting to fold over/crease/bubble, not sure what the right word is, within the frame.
I'm not sure if this is a fault of the framers, and therefore should I ask them to sort it out? Or is it a common thing with large prints?
Thanks in advance if someone can help

Creased print advice, by richy00 on Jun 10, 2009 14:10:11 GMT 1, you mean it looks rippled?
it because it was rolled in a tube before being framed. it will do this unless you press it down with a mount? which isnt good for the print..
i think im right, i might have made that up

Creased print advice, by pork on Jun 11, 2009 9:02:46 GMT 1, I would try freezing the print then gently hammering the ripples out of it with a steak mallet, once you are happy it is flat, defrost it in a bath of luke warm acid free water and dry it with a hot iron, let me know how you get on...
