O.K., I'll admit it. I used to hate seeing photographs on canvas, especially with the "gallery wrap" thing where the image continues on the edge. Ugh.
But now I'm thinking of trying it (the canvas, not the gallery wrap). I know there are other boards that have more canvas printers but this forum has the highest standards, and that is key for me.
One of the big attractions for me is durability. Inkjets on paper just seem so fragile. Are canvas prints more durable, as they would seem to be? Could my cat walk across one without me losing consciousness?
Coatings? I don't want sprays (my family is in the industrial painting business, only fools spray without masks, ventilation, and, indoors, without fire suppression). What do I use?
Can a large print be rolled for for storage? Will it hurt the print if it is kept that way long term?
Stretching? Alternatives to stretching? I just want the thing flat.
Regarding stretching, what if I wanted to do a single photo in multiple panels? Would I be able to get the edges to line up reasonably well?
I'm looking for the highest quality materials here....guidance is welcome!
