I have a dry mounting press and have some ?'s for the group. The FB prints that I have so far mounted have some waviness and when I dry mount I am getting creases on the sides where the print did not evenly adhere to the board. I have tried mounting piece meal - starting at one corner and working the mounting process towards the diagonal corner - have tried using a supplemental tacking iron but this hasn't helped. Any thoughts from the group. Ernie
