Tuesday's here! Time for another tip --
Every once in awhile, regardless of mounting method used, one will discover a section of a layered panel or image has either "lifted off" or was never properly adhered. For me, it's usually a corner...
Here's an easy fix for making everything smooth and flat:
Take a small strip of liner paper (can be the backing from glue dots, foam tape, cold laminate, stickers, etc.),
Dot one end with a thin film of tacky glue (photo 2),
Slide the strip in under the unadhered area, and
Simultaneously pull the strip out, while pressing the lifted area into place (photo 3). Problem lift-off solved...
As we say in Maine, "Supah!"
Note: If you don't have liner paper available, you can also use a strip of any text-weight scrap, but make sure not to press down too hard during the removal stage... or the scrap will get permanently "sandwiched" into place.
