1. Prepare your workspace. Make sure your table is clean and free of dust and wear photo gloves, if possible. Make sure you have everything you need, including 4 bars, 4 corner clamps, glue, staples/fasteners, a handheld trimmer, and your print. Your print should be at least 2" larger than your frame on each side (left, right, top, and bottom). For example, if you're making an 8" x 8" frame, your print should be at least 12" x 12" to allow for proper wrapping.
2. Peel off the liners from the bars.
3. With the adhesive facing up, attach the bars to the corners, creating your frame.
4. Place your print face down on your work surface, and center your frame over the print with the adhesive facing down. Once centered to your liking, press the frame down so the adhesive sticks to your print.
5. While holding the bars down, remove the corner holders.
6. Using your trimmer, create a 45° angle cut on all 4 corners (not flush to the bars), and then trim your print edges flush to the bars.
7. Create a perpendicular cut to each of the corners (from the center, out), and fold the cut pieces over the bar.
8. Beginning about 1" in from the corners, apply a line of glue along each edge of your print beside the bars.
9. Two sides at a time, fold the bars up so the corners touch and secure them in place with fasteners.
10. Snap-in the supports to each corner.

Tips for making a perfect Wrapped Canvas using IG Wrap Stretcher Bars:

• Start with a clean working surface to protect your canvas from scratches caused by grit and dirt.
• If you are mounting on canvas, make sure to press the bars firmly down and apply a thin bead of glue before folding up the edges. The glue works in conjunction with the adhesive tape to make a permanent stretching.
• To ensure proper adhesion across the entire bar, we recommend that after you have closed the frame you apply pressure along the outside edge by pressing firmly with your hand where the tape makes contact with the material. Please note that it can take up to 24 hours for the tape to achieve maximum adhesion.
• We recommend that liquid laminate be applied prior to mounting. If you wish to apply liquid laminate after mounting you must wait for 2 to 3 hours for the glue to set. We recommend ClearShield Type C Liquid Laminate.
• If you forget to glue you can remove the closing pins, open the frame, and apply the glue.

What's the difference between the GOframe 1500 PRO and the GOframe 1500 Standard?

Please note: Canvas material and print are not included. These canvas wrap sets will work with most canvas materials, include even paper prints. We always recommend testing new materials before creating your print to be displayed. Most customers use a 300 to 450 gsm canvas material and see beautiful results. Corner clamps may vary in color.
