11 x 14 picture frames with small copy mostly.

Inkworks:
Bubbles do not go away unless it special vinyl, but people stop looking really closely at it after they do the initial inspection.

For small piece like that a set of lamination rollers work wonders, worth having around the shop.

GaryG:
Does the laminate reduce bubbles due to having a slightly stiffer overlay?

How does that work? Do you use it to apply the transfer paper? I wouldn't have thought the glass substrate would survive a trip under the roller with very much pressure.

Inkworks:
It's not about a lot of pressure, it's about a perfect rolling single point of contact. For substrates that are tricky to laminate without bubbles it's a great tool in the arsenal.
