Dry mounting would prbably not be suggested since this method is not at all
archival. Since pt/pd prints are highly archival it would kind of destroy the
purpose of the print. Blue masking tape is also a non archival method as the
color may leach into the paper and ruin a print. There are achival tapes
available that can be used on your prints. The traditional method is to make
hinges out of the tape and apply one side to the back of your print and the
other to the 100% rag backing board. then use the same method to hang on the
100% rag matt.

Good luck,
