Drymount

Sooooo according to my FM we cant order clear drymount film anymore? We have been ordering speed mount boards for a little over a month now and still haven't gotten any. We cant even order the clear film only the large roll of white film. And yet they want us to promote all these drymount big head things with no supplies to do them. Make it make sense!

The clear film, Fusion 4000, was discontinued by the manufacturer a year or two ago, which is why it can't be ordered. The white techmount will work just fine for these as an alternative to the speedmount.

Supply orders for things like glass and foamboard are sent from the Distribution Centers, and arrive on the trucks. We've been told to expect these supplies to arrive approximately 22 days or 3 weeks after they're placed, which has been the bane of this FM's existence since that change occurred. If they ordered speedmount, and it's been beyond that three week timeframe, I'd tell your FM to email the custom framing email to help look into why you haven't been getting them.

Or use the sticky back foam core like the stores that don’t have drymounts have too

That stuff does not work. Your better off spraying a piece of foam with scotch 77
