Drytac has developed Artsafe 200a mounting tissue that is a very high quality, buffered, acid-free, non-yellowing, stable and safe adhesive for giclee prints, posters, photo, fine art, prints and clippings.
Simulated age testing has shown Artsafe 200 to withstand 200-year aging without degradation. Activation temperatures are very low for the safety of fragile items, with a standard working temperature at 70-75°C (160° F). Even after aging, Artsafe 200 can be reversed by careful use of Industrial Methylated Spirit.
Artsafe 200 mounting tissue is supplied on a special "carrier release" paper, and can be used for both small and large prints. A single sided version (with adhesive on one side of the buffered tissue) is also available for use as a heat-set repair tissue.
Wide format printers looking to optimise their production and integrate the latest technologies in their operations should make time for Print Shop Live! at FESPA Digital 2012 (Barcelona, 21-24 February 2012).
