Cauty National Postal Disservice Disaster, by numusic on Jan 23, 2007 20:57:18 GMT 1, Friends, fellow boardistas and the rest, your expertise is legedary and your helpfulness un-stinting; Iif you came across a fellow banksy.info member with a quandry, possibly even a disaster on his hands, to a man you would all cross the road and rip the piss mercilessly. So here's your chance. I've got a CNPD FIFA 2006, signed edition. It came after Englands miraculous triumph in Germany when they managed to make even Trinidad and Tobago look dangerous. I haven't got a description of the medium, lets say its heavy, glossy and possibly on photographic paper. Looked at it when it arrived, put it back in its tube with the Aquarium's paper. Opened it last Sunday because The Day Of A Thousand Framing Decisions was upon us, and the thing looked fooked. particles of white fibre from Aquarium's have stuck to the surface of the print. Its most noticeable around the heavy black border. What would you do?
stamp my feet, cry and shout fook fook fook, slam a few doors.. make a cup of tea, sit down and watch a bit of TV. Get up, make breakfast and then forward the mail above to Aquarium followed up with a phone call. Go to work.

Cauty National Postal Disservice Disaster, by HowAboutNo on Jan 23, 2007 21:03:23 GMT 1, Sounds like it's originally been put in the tube shortly after printing, but ink stays "wet" lonnnnnnnnng after it looks dry, weeks and even many months after its printed, certain colours may never really dry (its what that put on bank notes to a certain degree)
Anyone who says "in tube since day 1" always makes me cringe, I know its the easy option, but my only advice for everyone with tubed up prints is to REMOVE THEM ASAP!
For instance, if you roll a print up tightly thats fresh from printing (I'm sure it happens loads - print, then ship, not rocket science) it will begin to dry out in a tightly rolled print. The longer left like it, the more likely it is to dry into.....a tightly rolled print.
And sometimes impossible to make completely flat again.
Anyway, lecture over. Am sorrry Dave, am not sure how best to broach the fact that your print is fooked.....wait until midnight and am sure Martin will save the day!
