So we have been doing canvas prints for about three years now and never had a problem or had anyone let us know of a problem. Printing with a vp-540 on neshen monet canvas.
We make the frames out of 1x2 select board form home depot or menards. We then cut the boards at 45 degree glue and nail them together. Then we print on monet canvas and hand stretch them around the frame.
I have noticed at my parents house they have about 6 canvas's we made. The canvas is starting to get wavy on the front and looking warped. I also noticed one other customers that became wavy.
I did some search on the internet and people are saying it is the humidity. I did take a wet paper toweling and wipe it on the back of the canvas and heat it with a blow dryer.
It did flatten it out. The next day it looked like it was going to start to get wavy again.
We dont laminate the canvas. Will this help if we use a clear shield. What can we do so this doesn't happen in the future?
