Hi Stanley,

Interesting, that you are applying the Rollataq to the foamcore and not to the 
print. Up to what size photo would you apply this method and for how long have 
you been doing it this way?

Thanks
Lou.

Thanks

  Howdy gra.fics

  I've got a fancy Coda 34" motorized desktop laminator sitting 
  in a crate since yikes April, haven't unpacked nor used it yet.
  I know, I know, that un-use is a sin, but time's been tight.

  In the meantime:

  I've been getting by fine for low-volume mounting with a 
  4" Rollataq applicator. I cut a piece of fomecore a few
  inches larger than the untrimmed print. I apply the 
  rollataq to the fomecore. I go left to right, then top
  to bottom, to ensure good coverage. I lay the print upon it. I put
  sheets of 11x17 paper over the print and fomecore.
  Press everything down with a roller. Put a heavy
  box on top. Come back in 30 minutes. Remove box.
  Remove 11x17 paper sheets. Trim up using Logan
  matte cutter. Works WONDERFULLY. Not a single
  failure. Neither messy nor wasteful when following
  this protocol. Most excellent results. No separation,
  even when the print's curly-curly cuz it's from the
  end of the roll and I've had no time to flatten. Big
  bargain technique with excellent results and no spray
  to inhale.
