- Description
- One cardboard box of Kodak Dry Mounting Tissue, used to bind a print to a mounting surface such as a board by using a hot press. According to the instructions on the box, a sheet of tissue is to be trimmed to match the size of the print and then placed into a dry mounting heat press with the tissue between the print and the surface it is being mounted to. Once in place, the hot press applies heat and pressure, fusing the print to the mount without the use of liquid adhesives, which might create rippling.
