My dry-mount temperature is 80-90C for RC and 90-100C for FB. I have to
state a range, because you don't get a constant temperature from a dry-mount
press.


So for FB, that would be around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. That's a good bit hotter than Richard's temperatures for flattening.

I use the same temp as for dry-mounting for 2 minutes between two pieces of
mat-board. Then I take it out and cool it under a heavy piece of glass for 5
minutes. Aluminum may be a better heat conductor, but glass works fine and
is easier to get get and to keep clean.


 What is your dry mounting temperature?

  I think I am going to check the temperature that that dry mount press
  I have been using gets to. It doesn't seem to get very hot to me.
  But, what is the right temperature for flattening prints?
