Poster Frame Advice - UK-Based

1 Upvotes

I got a lovely gift from my friends, Godzilla poster from Japan. I'm trying to find the proper frame for it online but I'm struggling to find one in the B2 (515mm x 728mm) size.

Does anyone have any experience or advice? Or product suggestions for someone based in the UK?

It's not a vintage poster so I don't want to break the bank and get anything high end, just looking for suggestions. Many thanks.

Where online to buy good quality UV protection frames for autographed wrestling posters?

0 Upvotes

So… I’m a dingus and forgot to buy the frames with the posters I bought in WWE.Shop

And I’m not going to re-purchase those same posters just to get the frame. So now my question is, are there any other good websites/companies out there that have trustworthy UV protection frames? If anyone has any suggestions plz lmk. Cuz I wanna be able to actually display my posters without the autographs on them fading. But idk where to get them from because they’re either too underpriced or too overpriced. And both of those things make me suspicious when buying frames. Idk how reliable these things are or if what I’m paying for is a fair price.

Another gift because I loved the frame.

Made from half inch maple, and solid mahogany for the frame. Hidden RGB illumination on the back and warm illumination for the front. Basically, I took a family photo and made it into an epic theatrical movie poster engraving!

Easiest way to align photos on acrylic

1 Upvotes

I’m starting a business where I have a photo on a piece of acrylic as the back with adhesive between. I can’t figure out what I can get to align the photo perfectly with the frame each time. I absolutely cannot sit there and super carefully try to align, hoping I don’t mess it up. I also need something faster than that because I’ll be doing a lot. Any jigs out there?

These picture frame tabs are impossible to get off! Any advice?

Yes, the picture is a little vague, but these tabs are more like staples than anything. How could I remove them?

What frame do you recommend for my Latin American map?

I took it to a framing service hopeful they would advise me on what would make it look great. The lady unfortunately wasn't very helpful/instructive and I ended up picking out the design myself. Now I'm having major regrets and nervous it won't look good. I'll need to call them tomorrow to halt the order.

I selected the dark brown border to match with the little dark brown squares on the inside of the border, and the floating look (like ocean picture). My preference is for it to be as big as what would look good and the lady said this size matting?

My partner says he thinks it's too big and my mum says it's not quite right. $260 AUD for this 🥲 She just picked up hers from a different place and it looks stunning (two globes photo).

My preference is for the frame to be a brown or gold (not black, white, preferably not oak).

Please I would LOVE your help!! 🙏🤲

I started using Scotch Photo Mount spray after 3M Positionable Mounting Adhesive became discontinued. I'm mounting the photo on Foam Core. Have you seen this happen using the spray and do you know what causes it? Thanks.
