I glued down a poster onto posterboard and now it has bubbles! Does anyone know how to get rid of bubbles after the glue has dried? and if not is there a special way of gluing that doesn't make bubbles?
I am desperate!

Professionals use a vacuum press. Basically, it sucks all the air out and flattens the poster and board together. There is still room for mistakes, but it is reliable with practice. If you have another copy, call around to some framing shops and ask about a "wet mount" ie: gluing a poster to a backing.

Unfortunately, now that the glue has dried, the bubbles are there to stay. The air is not in them anymore, but the rest of the poster is glued down around it.

tho stop this from happening, make sure the poster is firmly pressed down against the board when glueing on the wall.

wow, that doesn't sound very good. your best bet is to take it to a framing store or poster store that specializes in dry and cold mounting and see if there is anything that can be done to steam the poster off the board and have it dry mounted correctly. good luck with this.

poke tiny holes with a pin to let the air from the air bubbles escape and soothen it out. dont poke holes that are too big tho, or they might be noticed!
goodluck!
