Your image will have enhanced color and a three dimensional appearance due to the plexiglass being affixed directly to the print. The plexi face mount is hung with an "invisible" hanger that gives the appearance your print is floating off the wall.

You can choose between metallic and glossy paper for your print.

• By attaching the plexiglass directly to the print, a sense of depth is achieved, resulting in an almost 3D effect. Reflection may be diminished compared to a regular framed image.

• Sometimes the glass over prints can dull the image. With a face mount, the combination of the glossy or metallic paper and the high shine plexiglass results in vivid, rich color every time.

• Your face mount is created using the same top of the line inks, papers, and plexiglass used in custom framing. This means your image is equal to a framed print in longevity and quality.

• A plexi face mount is a bit less expensive than a framed print of the same size. The cost of the frame moulding, custom construction, and matting is avoided.

• If your face mount happens to topple off the wall, there is a good chance it will remain undamaged. There is no frame to crack or break, and the plexiglass is unlikely to chip due to the reinforced backing.

• Unlike the foam core backing on a framed print, the aluminium Di Bond protects your print from the back just as much as from the front.

• Once your image is mounted onto the plexiglass, there is no chance of moisture, dust, or other problematic particles working their way between the clear cover and your print - the image will remain just as uninterrupted and clear as the day it was delivered.

1. First a sheet of plexiglass and a sheet of aluminium are cut to fit your print

2. A piece of transparent mounting tissue is placed between the print and the aluminium backing. This "sandwich" passes through the cold press, which forms an adhesive bond. (Sometimes the aluminium will have an adhesive attached, which eliminates the need for the tissue.)

3. The same process is followed to affix the plexiglass to the front of the print.

4. Once the pieces are fused together, a custom size, heavy-duty hanging system is attached to the aluminium backing. This rectangular frame sits in from the edges of the face mount, creating a "floating" effect. The plexi face mount is hung on the wall using only a nail or two.
