For safety and beauty, dry mount your fine prints on a quality mount board.

A fine print deserves a fine presentation. These boards are smooth, bright white and highly satisfactory for dry mounting. I use the small 8x10 board for 4x5 and smallish prints, 11x14 board for "5x7ish" prints, and 16x20 boards for 8x10 and larger prints. Sold shrink wrapped in packages of 5 boards. This mount board is the same thickness and quality as the 4 ply mount board I used to get from Light Impressions, but at considerable savings. Buy in quantity and save.

Dry mounting always works better with our boards than with the "fuzzy" rag boards, which don't always allow the mounting tissue to adhere properly.

For a while this product was discontinued, but we have found someone to manufacture it.

For dry mounting prints to boards. Tack the tissue to the back of the print; then, after trimming, position the print on the board. Lifting the print carefully, tack the tissue to the board. "Sandwich" this between two other boards and insert into the dry mount press.

This tissue is used at low temperatures, and is good for all types of papers (including RC but we recommend you don't use RC paper).

This tacking iron was one of our first products. I've looked at lots of them and haven't found anything better.

Our tacking iron has a nicely designed tip which slips easily under print edges. There is a temperature control dial, a non-stick surface, a very comfortable hardwood handle and a 5 foot cord.

These tacking irons are very comfortable to use. They work just as well as the one made by you-know-who. This model has been in use in my workroom for several years.
