Hi I am looking at large landscape (50") one printed.

I have had a search about with Google and searched on here, from what I now understand I have three options

1, A regular print glued to acrylic
2, Printed sticky backed plastic attached to acrylic
3, Direct print to acrylic

My feeling is direct print would be better (the others could wrinkle on the mount points?) does anybody have experience of or a preference?

And lastly would you recommend anybody?

Sorry for all the questions but £200 plus on one print, I value your experience over a search engine.

Kev

I've had a few acrylic prints done and for me whitewall was the best. One aspect to consider which is not well documented by the vendors is how the acrylic attaches to the wall.
Whitewall's method which uses metal runners is very secure and stable, and well engineered. Photobox was a couple of cheap blocks of wood, although the print itself looked fine.

Let me know if you find someone who can do 50" acrylics, that's pretty big!

Crikey this is getting tough, nobody returns calls nowadays? So much for a recession they must be so busy?
