| General Mosaic Questions: |
|
|
| Mosaic Puzzle Sizes: |
- Medium (18"x24")
- Large (24"x32")
- Only these two sizes are offered because they are the most common
and they do yield the best viewing results for puzzle mosaics.
|
| Printing: |
-
Your mosaic is printed on heavy weight premium Epson glossypaper with UltraChrome ink. It will hold up indoors and outdoors and is rated to last more than 80 years.
-
After the print is complete it will go through a varnish coating to
protect it from various elements. This coat will protect it
from fingerprints and other such everyday contact.
|
| Print Matting: |
- The print is then matted on to a
very sturdy 1/16 inch matte board. Matte board is more durable
and fits together better then normal cardboard.
- A special glue is used to adhere the
print to the board to ensure a permanent bond. This process
takes a full day to assure a perfect matting with no bubbles
|
| Laser Cutting: |
- The puzzle pattern is precisely cut by a laser instead of a
puzzle press, because lasers do not leave a depression on the edge
of the pieces.
- Laser cutting allows for a better looking finished puzzles
because, the pieces lock together more seamlessly and the image lies
flat with no groves or indents.
|
| Shipping: |
- The mosaic puzzle will be placed in a cylindrical container with a miniature
picture of you mosaic on the outside.
- The cylinder will be then placed in protective box filled will
styrofoam to ensure safe delivery.

 |
| Turn Around Time: |

pictures till we ship your product.

process due to the matting and cutting stages.
