Hi Derek I like your work very much. Can you please tell me what this white board is made of ?

Hi, it's called a mono board I purchase from my framing supplier. I mainly use a acid free foamboard as backing but these mounted prints get shrink-wrapped and taken to an outdoor weekend market. Foamboard at the market tend to bow in the shrink-wrap over summer with the heat, mono board is more stable under those conditions.

What kind of self adhesive photo paper is this? Would you prefer to laminate a print and apply adhesive on the back at the same time as you showed in one of your other videos?

This paper is a product from Sihl. Sihl Imola satin self adhesive photo paper. If the paper requires laminating, applying the self adhesive film and pressure sensitive laminate onto the paper at the same time is one step operation compared two step applying them separately. If the print to be mounted onto a board doesn't require a laminate finish can just use a self adhesive paper, self adhesive backing board or apply a self adhesive film to the back of the paper or the board to mount onto.
