Photo vs Acrylic Floats

Photo Floats

Photo Floats are similar to Acrylic Photo Floats but the print is made on Canson Photo Satin and then mounted on top of 6mm Sintra. The surface is then protected with a UV inhibiting satin finish lamination. The Sintra boards have a solid black edge and the wooden float box mounted on the back comes with a built in hanging cleat.

Acrylic Floats

Acrylic Print Floats start out by printing your image on Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper. The print is then second surface mounted on to 1/4” acrylic or Plexiglas. The final step is to mount onto a 3mm, (approximately 1/8"), black Sintra backer that has a 3/4” deep wood frame with French Cleat attached to its back. The result is a modern look with a striking impact of a high gloss image floating on the wall. Acrylic prints can also be produced without the floating box on the back and would include 4 metal standoffs for wall mounting through holes drilled into the acrylic corners.

Please mention if you would prefer not to mount your image with the floating box in the product listing before placing your order.
