Anyone got some sugestions on the best way to mount my A4 prints to a backing board. I have 6 x A4 prints that i need to "adhere" to a 1200mm long backing board then mount into a frame (behind glase) that i have made.

I have tried using spray adhesive (both on the back of the photo and the backing board) but the prints are lifting already after one day!

Any thoughts?

do you have mound board between the frame and the pictures?

Are you using 'spray adhesive' or "Photo Mount"? I just used PM to mount a 16X24 to a 20X28 canvas and it's great. You gotta spray both surfaces, and then use lots of pressure to make sure they stick. Then it should be permanent. Its more expensive - by about 4X, but its archival and strong.

The prints are sandwiched between a 3mm MDF board and a sheet of 2 mm frame glass.
