Hi,
I am an artist doing my own basic framing, using eFRAME (here in UK).
I can assemble the frames fine and have perfected a dust-free technique reasonably well (wiping the edge of the perspex with a damp microfibre cloth before peeling one face very slowly).
The one thing I noticed after hinge-mounting prints inside barrier board and front mount, is that the print appears to 'bulge' towards the center.
This may be due to thin mdf backing, which is held in place by Nielsen-type springy metal in between the metal frame and mdf backing board.
Should I be putting in a layer of foamcore as well? Thicker mdf?
Or is this something that happens when you don't dry-mount?
The inkjet paper is Oyster 271.
It would be difficult to capture in a photo I think, as it's quite subtle, but still noticeable, especially from the side.
