An Overview Of Picture Framing Dublin

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.

Open all the packages that you need and assemble them in an organized way. Confirm that all the materials that you ordered are there and do not throw away the packaging materials till your picture frame has been assembled and placed on the wall to your satisfaction. The packaging that you order should come in with details of how to fix the frames.

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 acrylic is prepared and a flank of protective liner used peeled off. This should the side that will be in touch with the piece of art. It is placed facing down on the assembly of the art. The other side is then peeled off. When using non glaring or ultra violet acrylic then the manufacturer will have indicated in the package the side to be peeled.

Next come the framing bit. In the event that you are assembling a metallic frame then the side and bottom rails are placed face down on the work surface. The art assembly is slid inside the incomplete assembled frame thereafter. The treatment of the frame is put face down and its top rail inserted. The corners are then tightened. Spring clips are inserted under the metallic frame channel at this point for provision of a tight and nice fit. Hanging hardware and bumpers are attached.

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 it is recommended to always polish the finished work using a squirts of acrylic cleaner made of Novus. The polishing works to ensure that the picture looks great and presentable which is of course the ultimate goal of any art framer.
