Hi guys, here's a bum piece of news: it looks like the new generation of inkjet papers (Crane Museo, Hahnemule Fine Art Pearl, and Innova) cannot be face-mounted on plexi. The paper has a thickness to it, like a sponge, and apparently that thickness holds millions of tiny bubbles of air which get squeezed onto the surface of the print during the mounting process. I have had several prints face mounted as a test, and every one of them showed this defect. We tried one with heat and that seemed to solve the problem, but then it showed up on that print a couple of weeks later.
So for inkjet prints to be face-mounted, the Epson RC papers still seem to be the best bet.
