Was reading the thread from a few days ago. I have been cleaning my part of the shop all day, so my mind is kinda tired. Just want to see if I have this right.
1. cut window mat
2, apply the acrylic medium with a small roller
to mat and bevel
3. let dry 15 minutes or so
4. lay fabric over mat
5. put in heat press for 5 minutes or so at 160??
6. use tacking iron to do the bevel??
7. I know how to finish back and work corners
I've done 3 of these in the last week or so and I love them...only thing is I have used Pro 77 and I hate that stuff...have you ever tried spraying that stuff outside and the wind blowing20-25 miles an hour...goes everywhere...plus you have to move pretty fast to get the fabric positioned. And if you are doing a fairly large mat...you need an extra person to help, or at least I do.
Anyway...I hope i've got this right...Please advise
Thanks,
Sherry
