Great 8 Ply Mats

By Natphoto

Pros

Comments about Blick Pre-Cut Gallery Mats:

These mats make it so easy for me to mat my photographs for exhibition. The 8 ply is so much better looking than the four ply and much studier too. The price through Blick can't be beat
as far as I know.

Addendum

By Dee

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Pre-Cut Gallery Mats:

I would like to add to my review that I was reviewing the 16x20 blank mats (17223-2008 & 17223-1128), not the pre-cut mats. I'm sure the pre-cut mats are fine bc they are professionally cut by the manufacturer. I just would not recommend the blanks without the proper equipment. I didn't realize when I ordered they were 8-ply and therefore twice as thick as normal 4-ply mats, and I didn't realize when I wrote the review it would be considered a review of the pre-cut mats. My Logan 450 mat cutter cannot handle them. I have absolutely no problem with 4-ply mats.

Extremely thick

By Dee

from Keaau, HI

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Blick Pre-Cut Gallery Mats:

These mats are extremely thick. MUCH thicker than your average mat. So I ruined more mats trying to get through the layers than I normally would. Had to lower the blade on the mat cutter to 3x its previous depth, with mistakes along the way bc of it, and had to change blades after every 2 cuts. Also, I could not tell which side is the display side so made a wild guess - there is absolutely no texture to either side. Very disappointed at the waste and would not buy again. Unless you have a blade that you can lock into place as you cut or have extremely strong hands to keep the blade at a deep depth, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Comments about Blick Pre-Cut Gallery Mats:

I realized that these mats were of average quality when I purchased, however, out of the first 30 I pulled from the packgage. 5 had spots and small black marks on them.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
