mounting

[Farm Girl]

I used filmoplat P90 to mount an oil pastel. It is not holding. What other preservation mounting method do you recommend? farmgirl@cox.rr.com

There may be a question among some framers as to whether P-90 is a true "conservation" method of mounting.

If the pastel is done on fairly heavy art paper I would recommend using acid free mylar mounting corners. You didn't mention how large the art is so there may be a more appropriate method if it is a very large piece.

Use wheat starch paste and Japanese paper hinges.
