Tom,
The crinkles can come out, but very stubborn sometimes. The poster needs
to sit in the bath for a longer time to really relax the paper.
Painting over crinkles is useless. Better to sand down and smoothen out
with mylar and burnishing tool.
I have 4- 40x60 framed and scattered throughout my place, all show minor
bumps and creasing, wich is fine with me.
Dario.

Can anyone please tell me what option's one has in regard's to
restoring cardboard stock 40" x 60" movie posters? I see these
poster's sometimes paperbacked and also laid down on linen. Can
anything be done with the crinkles or would the only other option be
inpainting? Crinkles are so common with these types of posters
compared to paper stock posters. Usually the crinkles are considered
normal and the nature of the beast. These are quite limited compared
to one sheets. Many were used outdoors and at drive in's. Like other
movie poster's they were considered disposable advertising art. I am
so glad in many cases this did not happen!!!
Thank's for any ideas!
