what do you think about 3m PMA? is it a good substitute for drymounting large inkjet prints and lithos? what problems would need to be looked out for? Will drymount tissue and pma have similar holding power and longevity? Also, where can I get lascaux 360?

  Generally, proper dry mounting is more durable than pressure-sensitive adhesive mounting.

Lascaux 360 is available from suppliers of conservation materials, such as Light Impressions, University Products, Talas, Conservation Resources, Gaylord Bros., etc.

The least invasive mounting process usually turns out to be the best. If the art paper is in good condition, not creased or heavily wrinkled, top-edge hinges or all-around, non-adhesive edge supports would be preferable to permanent mounting by any method.
