We are looking to frame a large laminated map about 5 ft by 4ft . We need to adhere this to 10 mm foam core. We cannot dry mount this or put it in the hot press. Will have an oak frame round the map but no glass. What would be the best suggestions for this.

is the map currently laminated? and how heavy or flexible is it?

Scuff the back of it up to give a key then cold press it to board, I would suggest diabond might be a nicer option, much stiffer and stable
