usually use a dry mounting tissue or adhesive film.
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to remove moisture when dry mounting a photograph:
1. Ensure that both your photograph and mounting surface are clean and dry. Any moisture present can lead to unwanted effects like bubbling or warping.
2. Prepare the dry mounting tissue or adhesive film. These are usually available in pre-cut sheets or rolls. Cut the tissue or film to match the size of your photograph.
3. Place the mounting tissue or film on a clean, flat surface. Make sure the adhesive side is facing up.
4. Gently place your photograph on top of the adhesive side of the mounting tissue or film. Ensure it is properly aligned.
5. Use a clean, lint-free cloth or roller to press down on the photograph, applying even pressure. This helps remove any trapped air or moisture between the photo and the tissue/film.
6. If you notice any moisture or bubbles during this process, carefully lift the photograph and address the issue. Use a clean cloth to absorb any excess moisture or air, and reapply the photo on the adhesive.
7. Once the photograph is mounted, you can use a dry mounting press or heated vacuum press (if available) to set the adhesive properly. This will ensure a secure and long-lasting mount.
8. Allow the mounted photograph to cool and set completely before handling or framing. This usually takes a few minutes to several hours, depending on the adhesive used.
Remember to follow the specific instructions provided with the dry mounting materials you are using, as different products may have slightly different procedures. It's also essential to work in a well-ventilated area and protect your photograph from any potential damage during the process.
