When I did this years ago, I used spray adhesive on masonite boards. I don't live in a particularly dry climate (it is 'continental humid') and I never had any issues with the backdrop. My basement is climate controlled and is probably quite stable.I bought a small rubber roller to help adhere the backdrop. It was invaluable during the process.
Chris, that looks awesome! Nice work!Is your sky board an integral part of the backdrop, or did you trim the edge....if so a fantastic I job.Otto K.
Ya Does look awesome. So you just glued the styrene directly to the straight wall sections, and left the arch radius as free standing?Jeff
I took mine to a print & sign company here in Louisville and had them professionally mounted on 0.050" styrene. It's a bubble-free result, unlike my attempts using spray adhesive. The lamination of the styrene, adhesive, and backdrop make it plenty-rigid with no issues with sagging, etc. There's enough "flex" to allow me to curve the backdrop around corners for smooth, continuous flow. Also, styrene means absolutely no issues with changes in humidity or moisture. (Attachment Link)
Is the laminate over the front of the print? and Is it a matte finish?
