Self-stick mount board is a type of mount board that is coated on one side with an adhesive.  To use self-stick mount board, first you peel off the protective paper from the sticky side of the mount board.  Carefully position your artwork on the self-stick mount board, but don’t press down firmly until you are absolutely sure that the artwork is exactly where you want it to be.  The self-stick mount board is repositionable until you press down on your artwork firmly.  You will also want to make sure that you press down smoothly and evenly on the self-stick mount board, to avoid air bubbles.  A burnishing bone, which we sell at Documounts, might also come in handy when using self-stick mount board.

When you use self-stick mount board, you only need to buy the mount, which saves you money on adhesives.  Self-stick mount board is convenient for people who don’t want to fiddle with the usual adhesives that are used with mount board, such as tapes or adhesive sprays.

Self-stick mount board is available as 1/16” thick mounting board and also as 3/16” thick foam core.  The thicker self-stick mount board is ideal for mounting larger works of art, such as posters.

You can buy self-stick mount board from Documounts that is custom cut to nearly any size that you need.  You will save when you buy self-stick mount board in large quantities.  You only need to buy 4 of the same size custom cut self-stick mount board to receive a volume discount.  When you buy more than that, you will save even more!  The discount gets even bigger at each of the following amounts: 4, 8, 16, 48, 250, 1000 & 5000.

Documounts also sells other supplies that you’ll need to mat and frame your artwork, such as mat board, frames, glazing, and various matting and framing supplies.
