High School Senior clients are certain to like Taprell Loomis’ stylish
new TAP Clearview Composite Holder. The chic black simulated leather
cover opens like a book to reveal rich moiré lining. An 8x10 or
10x8 composite or one favorite portrait is held securely in place by
satin-ribboned corners. Also of note is the fashionable “Orleans” Dance
folder, a smart choice in which to display Senior Prom Photography. 
Soft
pastels arranged into geometric shapes are combined to create a formal
but fun cover to showcase the pretty prom dresses and fashionable tuxedos
that mark this rite of passage. See both at www.tap-usa.com. Order a
copy of their great wishbook catalog at (800) 827-5679.
MACtac, a subsidiary of the Bemis Company, Inc., has rolled
out a fine film for “smooth, consistent print mounting.” Pressure
sensitive acrylic adhesive coats both sides of this white, opaque film.
Perfect
for mounting photographic, inkjet, electrostatic, lithographic and even
screen-printed images, PermaPrint IP5000 is a new member of MACtac’s
Permacolor family of adhesives and overlaminating films. This film disburses
adhesive very uniformly, covering an image with even, bubble-free protection.
With IP5000, photographers are assured of brilliant, clear color without
bleed-through. For convenience, the film features a single release liner,
eliminating the need for removing a second liner. No heating, drying
or coating with IP5000, and it can be used on a variety of mounting surfaces:
Masonite, Sintra, Fome-Cor, Gatorfoam and Crescent board. For more solutions
to sticky situations involving pressure-sensitive adhesive materials
