Can Brilliance Chromata White shrink when Glamour II has been applied to it?

Because Brilliance Chromata White Inkjet Canvas is a cotton/poly blend, when it comes in contact with our water based Glamour II Veneer liquid laminate, some shrinkage of the canvas may occur. This is due to the reaction of the cotton when introduced to the water content in water based coatings. Since our inkjet canvas is not 100% cotton, shrinkage is minimal. When shrinkage does occur, the canvas tends to shrink only in one direction and usually it will shrink the exact same amount every time coating is applied, relative to print size. To control for canvas shrinkage, try to stretch each print within a few days after the print has been coated. Also, because the shrinkage will be less than one inch and very consistent, you can also make the adjustment and account for the shrinkage in Photoshop or in your RIP software.
