Banner w/ no photo glare?

[Rudy]

I print banners that are used in photos on occasion, even though I use a matte banner there is still some glare that appear on the photos.

I don't think the banners plays too much of a role in the glare since the ink has it's own semigloss finish anyway.

Maybe there is a coating I can spray on the banners when they are complete to cut down the glare?

Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks

Laminate it with matte laminate.

Print on a matte banner vinyl. Example: 3M 8450 Matte Banner Vinyl

I used to do a lot of banners for a kids television show. They loved a 90/10 weave mesh for large banners or synthetic canvas for things that would appear close up.

Part of it is the photographer...

If they set the people up so that the banner is at a slight angle in the background it wouldn't glare at all. One can photographer people in front of a mirror and not get flash glare...

Thanks for the replies.
I'm sure the photographer can at least try to get the glare out.
But they are hired by an outside company and I have absolutely no control over that.
I just need to try to do what I can on my end, knowing that they will be photographed.

Spray hair spray on it. Kills the glare.
