I have two elevator to quote that will be in fabric. They are planing on using old stock from when they built the place. The ? The one and only time I tried to hang unback fabric it was a night mare. If I do try need glue ideas and hanging ideas Need Ideas or should I run from that part of the project. Seeing they want to be cheap and use old stock in the other areas to.
Here are THREE answers from reliable paperhangers:
Keisling-Hess (Kiesling?). They are in California. Strange you mention CL today. 2 weeks ago I went to hang some fabric in Bill Clinton's offices in downtown NYC. The material arrives unbacked and not pre-shrunk. I was asked about backing it. Where, how long etc.. I told them the only 2 places I know are CL and KH. But prefaced it with "Do not use Custom Laminations. They do a lousy job and do not guarantee a good job. They even let you know that if they ruin the fabric they won't be held accountable." Well where did they send it? That's right! Custom Laminations. They didn't have time to get it done right. It came back 6 yards short out of 30 yards and wavy. I feel vindicated. Hopefully they'll believe me next time. Suuuuure! I kill me.
