Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hi, All.

I wonder what type of lamination I should use for my poster board mounts that will eliminate/reduce reflection? I really have no idea, so I can't list any options from which to choose. Help.. please! Thanks,

I would think that nearly all types of lamination would INCREASE reflections, not eliminate/reduce them.

Not to be a contrarian, but I put "lamination reflection" into google and the top hit:

(http://www.hanselmannphotography.com/IN ... ng%20.html) is titled "Laminated photographs have no glare or reflections."

Admittedly, the laminates discussed on the page above, being of photographic quality, are likely to in a stratospheric price range. The resources on the referenced page, from the google query above and others that you may perform may yield pointers to a lower cost, acceptable quality lamination.

Thank you for the tips! Like you said, the link led to some pretty artsy stuff that probably won't be necessary for a science fair project. HOwever, the google query really helped.
