Picture Framing Dublin; A Look At This Job

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.

All the packages that have been ordered for the work are opened and assembled neatly to simplify the work. Make a confirmation to see whether all the items that you ordered have been delivered and also do not throw the materials used for packaging until your design has been framed to your satisfaction. When the packaging is delivered, check to see if they have given you the instructions for framing.

Assemble needed tools for you to work easily without distractions. Make sure that you have also gathered the essential tools like screw driver, wire, linen tape and also acrylic cleaner. You can order some other tools and accessories from the online market in Ireland to simplify your work but this is not really important.

This art work is then mounted to a backing of foam core. What follows after this is hinging or taping a mat board onto foam core or on another mat board whichever is your preference. Then the product is set aside to be used later.

Next step is to make a preparation of the acrylic. The protective liner is peeled on the side that is expected to be in touch with the art. That side is placed facing down on your collection of art which is the picture and the board. When through, peel off the remaining side. If you made a order of acrylic made with ultra violet rays or non-glaring properties, that part should face up and it should be indicated in the bought package.

If you are working with a metallic frame you should choose side and also the bottom rails to be placed facing down on the surface you are working in. The corner brackets are to be inserted and tightened. The art is slid within the partly assembled frame. Frame treatment is also placed face down then top rail inserted and the corners tightened. Spring clips are put beneath the frame for a nice and also tight fit. Bumpers and hanging ware are attached last.

For those assembling a wooden frame the good news is that in the case of breadth and length less than or equal to 54 inches the suppliers deliver it already assembled. It is placed face down and the art also inserted into it face down. Clips are used to secure the piece of art inside. The nest thing to do is to screw in the wire and hanging hardware. Point drivers are used by some framers in the securing of the art. A tape with both sides sticky is run along edges of the frame and Kraft paper attached to it.

Before hanging you should polish off the finished piece of work using squirts of acrylic cleaner from Novus. This is done in order to ensure the end product of your labor is looking great and of course presentable to anyone looking at it.
