Acrylic Sheets: Adhering to a Support

1. Select a support that the acrylic sheet is to be adhered to: canvas, wood, MasoniteTM, fabric, etc.

2. Coat the backside of the acrylic sheet with either Gloss Medium & Varnish, Gloss Gel Medium or Gloss Heavy Gel Medium, or Gloss Super Heavy Gel Medium. Quickly position the transfer onto the support and press. To insure a uniform contact, let transfer dry under weight. Cover acrylic with palette or wax paper before adding weight to prevent sticking.

3. If adhering to wood or Masonite, the acrylic sheet may be stapled to support (in addition to or instead of gluing with mediums).
