I'm looking for dry mount tissue in the EU. For some reason or the other only US based sites pop whenever I do a search. Is dry mounting prints outside of the US so uncommon? Anyway, if you happen to know an art supply store that carries it ... please share you knowledge?

Thanks!
 
I've had these people dry mount prints for me on occasion: https://www.antoondejong.nl/
Might give them a call to see if that gets you any further. I did a quick search on their website, but products like these are often hidden in some illogical category or not be listed at all even though they stock them.
 

Yes, I do think so. Thank you very much!

As a non-native speaker I searched for various 'dry mount tissue' translations, but it never did an english to english translation, assuming that 'heat mounting foil' would be a term that would cross my mind. Thanks!

I bought mine from Lion Picture Framing in Birmingham, UK, their low tack tissue is excellent.

Now that I know of a trusty EU source for it, all UK based web shops are off the table. Ever since brexit and, even more so, the end of the transitional arrangements between the EU and the UK shopping at an UK based web shop lost all of its fun.

The problem already starts with terminolgy.

Does "Dry-Mounting" only refer to a melting-glue foil or also to cold-adhesive foil?
