But for people who want to display the images and be sure that they are protected against different types of elements, they need to spend on materials that are durable enough to hold the image.

There are those who prefer to use frames that are custom made. But the most preferred option today is to have it in custom size acrylic prints. This is the newest fad of the people. Before, it was not as famous because it can be very expensive. But today, it has become a staple piece in the home of average people.

Because of the larger demand of these prints today, there several methods are already used to cater to the preferences and the means of customers. You can have it directly printed to the sheet or you can face mount it. There is also the sandwich method. Depending on the budget that you have, and what you like to see, you can choose between the three famous methods.

Because of the effect that it gives off, face mounting is what most people usually go for. Aside from that, it is also the type of method that it most suggested by experts to new patrons. It is not so expensive and it has the 3D effect to go with.

In the past, the only material that you can print an image into to be certain that it would endure for more years is canvass. And despite the rise of acrylics, it is still widely utilized today. It could present the vintage effect to an image and this is something that others want to see sometimes.

One of the factors that causes the fading of photos is sunlight. Even if you put it in a very expensive frame that has is made of ultra durable materials, sunlight still has a way of penetrating through the glass. And when this happens, it would be hard to preserve the original vibrancy. This is not something that you have to suffer when you make use of acrylics.

Another disadvantage that you can encounter from glass frames is the fact that they could break and ruin the entire image. Acrylics on the other hand, is not prone to this weakness. But there is still a need to be careful though since it can still have chipped corners if not carried properly. It can also have scratches. This can be remedied by scratch resistant sheets. But for this tiny feature, you should be willing to pay extra.

The final result of prints that are in different materials is still debated by many. Some say that the other is more beautiful. But this is really based on the preferences of the person who is looking at the portrait. You can never say that canvass prints lack beauty because other people prefer this over acrylics.

Canvass made prints are more affordable than their counterparts in the field. And for this reason, it is a more appropriate choice for people watching their expenses. But if you are after quality, acrylic is the best way to go.
