[pure-silver] Re: OT Laminating with a hot press

I have dry mounted canvas with my Seal dry mount press. Seal made a
canvas product called Chartex for dry mounting to maps and charts.
This gave the paper maps strength for rugged field use. I do not know
if it is still available, but it could be approximated with dry mount
adhesive and canvas.
