Instructions

Select a thermal laminating film made of the same material as your print; for example, if you used polypropylene for your print, laminate with polypropylene. Select a finish. Laminating films come in a variety of finishes, from canvas-textured to smooth satin matte.

Place your image in between the fold of the film. The laminating film comes in a roll and folded in half, allowing you to place your image in between the sheets. The laminating material will adhere to both sides of your image.

Feed the film and image into your laminator. Turn on the heat setting and allow it to warm up for about two minutes. The heat will melt the film, and as it runs through the rollers of the laminator, it will press the film in a thin layer over your print.

Trim the excess off your print and display.

Select a cold laminating film to best meet your needs. Stick with selecting the same material as your print. Select a finish.

Place your image in between the fold of the film. The film comes packaged the same as the thermal film. The laminating material will adhere to both sides of your image.

Feed the film and image into your laminator. Do not turn the heat setting of your laminator on. As the laminating film and your print run through your laminator, two rollers press the film to your print, allowing it to permanently bond to your image.

Trim the excess film off your print and display.
