Finally – clean mounting museum grade substrates!

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

It’s official!… pristine, clean mounting of museum grade substrates is paramount – nothing is more obvious than the visible ‘ pimples ‘ caused by dust specs.  To help solve this common problem, and aid in the reduction of dust specs, the Colour Factory has recently installed the latest anti-static mounting equipment. To find out more about our mounting/ post-production services, call Shane on +61 (03) 9419 8756.
