B+H offers these two products in pre-cut sheets of various sizes. Does anyone have experience with using these, especially as compared with the old Colormount (originally? from Seal, then Bienfang, and now D+K Precision)?

I've used Colormount for my fiber b&w prints for years but my supply of 11x14 sheets is getting perilously low. In my limited searches I could find it only in rolls. I like the convenience of pre-cut sheets.

Hi Steve, like you I used the old stuff for a very long time for mounting fibre prints, I just got a couple of rolls of the new drytac hot adhesive and basically can say I had zero luck with this new improved stuff, I could not get prints in silver and in inkjet to hold in place like the old stuff.
I will follow this thread.

I am getting a new material to try which is rolled down on your mounting substrate, you then take of the release paper to position the print and hot press, my supplier says it works but I need to see it for myself. ( I will post here my results)
I tried a company out of Connecticut and it did not work either.
When you see reversible you know you have the bad stuff.
