New Colourmount colours

Post by The Common Framer »

Hi

Have just tried using the New Sky and Lime mount boards from Colourmount - ( Pop art commercial project) - Problem is - the face board seems to tear when cutting on the Valiani Matpro pneumatic cutter. New Blade - still not cutting cleanly yet all other boards cutting perfectly.

Anyone else had any problems with these boards? May be on a Computerised Cutter?

Will have to try on normal mountcutter - although I have forgotten how to use it now :-)

Have you tried cutting it face down on a nice new slip mat and sharp blade
Haven't seen these new colours yet, will have to ask my Simons rep

Didnt think of that. Yes - that seem to work (placing face down) . Blade was new anyway.

Will see how it goes!

Cheers
