How to tighten a canvas print?

7 years 8 months ago #491169 by Carlos
I have a client who bought a 24x36" print from me, who is indicating the canvas is all lose on it.  I had ordered it from a print company who supplied me with all the prints I needed for my clients.  Well they shut down nearly 6 months ago.  The client is dropping off the print at my office.  

Can canvas prints easily be tightened?  What do I need to do this?

You might be better off getting a new print.  If it's already lose, it could be cheap material.

Get it put in a frame.  The company I use locally here when they frame, they also tighten and 'service' the canvas.

Hey Carlos, at that size you should look up Picture it on Canvas.  They just had a deal on Living Social for $29 bucks for a 24x36 canvas.  Considering your situation, that could save you a headache.

Here you go, found the link -  www.livingsocial.com/deals/1604376-beach...se-browser-web-deals

You have to pay shipping, but that's minor.  Hope this helps!

I'm always skeptical of deals on LivingSocial or Groupon.  Have you had success with these yourself?
