The board we’re going to mount it to is Gillman brothers new mount core heat activated board. each mount core board comes with its own cover sheet and the ultra-smooth adhesive is coated on a breathable surface. To mount our print, all we have to do is place it on the board, cover it, and insert it in the laminator. This would be the same process for Gator board or other hamboards. Mount core runs at a quick 5 feet per minute at 275 degrees and the print exits the smooth mounter adhered to the board. It comes to rest safely on the extension arms so if you’re not at the laminator when it’s finished, that’s no longer a problem. The board cools flat on the extension arm, all you have to do now is remove the cover sheet to see your professionally mounted print. There’s not an easier way to professionally mount a print.
