Mounting Photos

Just thought I'd post this for anyone thinking of doing something similar:

I've been trying to succesfully mount some photo's for the local club competition. How hard is that!
I tried spray mount- paper buckled the next day
Tried tape on the edges- paper buckled in the middle the next day.

I rang a guy at the club to tell him my woes and he's put me onto a product he uses. It's made by 3M, the same people that make spray mount and is basically photomount on a roll:
Here, at almost £50 a roll delivered though it's not cheap. (product at top of page).
Also, I've ruined quite a few prints finding all this out which leads me to one other thing. Rather than buying an expensive colour printer (and you will need one with at least 2 blacks for mono's), there is a company: Here that prints your images for a very reasonable price. Again, I got the address from a camera club member and they came very highly recommended.

Anyway, thought it might be use to some of you.
