Full details

Troubleshooting
Artwork does not fit properly with the mount
Ensure the artwork is the correct size for the opening of the mount. The mount is designed to slightly overlap the artwork's edges. If the artwork is too large, it may need trimming.
Difficulty opening or closing the frame back
Check for any obstructions or bent clips. Gently flex the clips to ease opening and closing. Ensure the artwork and mount are not too thick for the frame.
Scratches on the plastic glass
Light scratches can often be buffed out using a plastic polish specifically designed for acrylic or polycarbonate. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
