An Overview Of Picture Framing Dublin

By April Briggs


The moment you finish up designing your art work and also made an order of the materials to frame you will start to think of framing your art work designs. When you begin, look for a flan working surface like the kitchen counter or even a large table in your place. Use a Kraft paper, a table pad or corrugated board to protect your design from being destroyed. People in Ireland who want to do the job of picture framing Dublin are asked to follow the procedure that has eight steps.

All the packages that have been ordered for the work are opened and assembled neatly to simplify the work. Make a confirmation to see whether all the items that you ordered have been delivered and also do not throw the materials used for packaging until your design has been framed to your satisfaction. When the packaging is delivered, check to see if they have given you the instructions for framing.

The essentials for the process include linen tape, acrylic cleaner, wire and screw driver. These ones are gathered together in an organized manner. There are other tools which are available in doing the job but they are not necessary and one can still go on without them and succeed in doing a commendable job of framing.

Begin by fixing your art to the back of the foam core then tape or hinge the mat sheet to this mat board or the form core according to your preference. Then set them aside as you perform other procedures.

The next step is preparation of acrylic. This is done by peeling a side of protective liner from the side that will come into contact with the piece of art. The peeled side is placed side down on the assembly of the art and the other side is peeled off. In the case where the acrylic been used has ultra violet or non-glaring properties then the side to face up is usually indicated on package.

Next step is that of framing. If you are using metal frame, start with its bottom and the side rails placing them facing down on your counter or surface. Next slide your art frame to the half assembled frame. Place that frame treatment facing down and then insert its top tail fixing all corners. Next insert the clips beneath the frame channel to give it a good, tight fit. Then attach bumpers and hanging hardware.

When your frame is made of wood, it will come assembled if you order one whose matted dimensions width plus length dimensions equal fifty four inches or below. Place the frame facing down on the working surface. Your art assembly is left facing down within its frame. Make use of clips to secure your art. Screw the hardware hanging and also its wire. If you frequently make frames, buy a point driver because it secures the points of the frame. For a better finished look of the back of your frame, use a sticky frame tape along edges of the staple gun that is found in the point driver. Then attach a Kraft paper and cut excess. Then attach the bumpers and also hanging hardware.

Before hanging your final frame, it is recommended that you polish off your final work by making use of few shots of acrylic cleaner. Making use of a Novus acrylic cleaner ensures that your final work is elegant and worth it.
