help me mount my posters

Guys

I have x3 posters for my cinema room.I am concentrating on reducing reflections so i do not want to mount them with a frame and glass.

So I was thinking.............could'nt I just mount them on say thin ply board using some sort of paste?? (What sort do you think??)

This way i can then just drill through each corner, put caps over the screws and there we have it.

Any idea's chaps around my suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks

Dave

Hi Dave

you`ll like this mate, you can buy anti reflective glass, my mate used to be a picture framer and he did all ours with it.

Shop about mate and its not dear

I think this is the stuff Al is on about, nice and cheap as well considering you get 5 sheets...

Re: help me mount my posters

I had my cinema posters mounted on ply which was mounted on a 1" wood frame to add some depth. Paint the frame matt black (or something that suits the colour of the poster background, mine was black) and hang as you would a normal framed piccy.
You can use wallpaper paste or PVA glue to mount the poster to the board.

Re: help me mount my posters

I want to mount it on the ply with no glass at all.The reflective glass still produces a sheen.I think I prefer the fact that the posters will be out in the open but do we think wall paper paste on ply will be ok??????
