Title: Gatorfoam presentation ideas
Post by: John V. on November 01, 2013, 12:16:14 pm

What options exist out there to hide the exposed foam edge of a Gatorfoam sheet? I've seen some sort of adhesive strips but cannot remember the name.

Duct tape. Comes in many pretty colors and patterns including camouflage.   ;D

You could paint it.

You could even ...frame it!!

I have a personal bias towards that last one.

Funny. It's an "economy" offering, wise guy. Serious though, they have some large 1/2" gatarfoam mounted prints in a local restaurant that have a simple, clean looking black strip of something, just to hide the foam edge. I've seen them online but can remember the name.

There are "gatorfoam" mounts from CODAmount.com - that have finished edges. Standouts and mural mounts (3/4 and 1.5" thick respectively). Very nice and I prefer 100% over canvas any variation.
