Both surfaces accept mounting adhesives, letting you choose which finish faces forward based on your needs. Single-thick boards measure 1\/16 inch; double-thick measure 1\/8 inch, providing structure without excessive weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultra-Black 8 version pairs smooth and textured surfaces on a single board. The textured side grips pastels, chalk, and acrylic paint for direct artwork, while the smooth side handles mounted photographs and printed materials. Ultra-Black Smooth boards feature smooth surfaces on both sides, ideal when you need consistent presentation quality regardless of which way you orient the board. That intense, uniform black creates striking contrast behind transparencies and makes white or light-colored artwork stand forward dramatically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoards cut cleanly without tearing or revealing lighter core material, critical when creating precise mats or multiple presentation boards from larger sheets. Photographers mounting portfolios, designers presenting storyboards, and artists matting work all benefit from boards that look intentional rather than improvised. The solid-black construction means your presentation maintains professional appearance from every angle, with no distracting white edges undermining the visual impact.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crescent","offers":[{"title":"32 in. x 40 in. single thick \/ Ultra-Black 8 \/ each","offer_id":47977397715173,"sku":"19524","price":12.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"32 in. x 40 in. double thick \/ Ultra-Black 8 \/ each","offer_id":47977397747941,"sku":"22585","price":19.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 in. x 30 in. single thick \/ Ultra-Black Smooth \/ each","offer_id":47977397780709,"sku":"39983","price":7.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 in. x 20 in. single thick \/ Ultra-Black Smooth \/ each","offer_id":47977397813477,"sku":"63489","price":3.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 in. x 40 in. single thick \/ Ultra-Black Smooth \/ each","offer_id":47977397846245,"sku":"70951","price":12.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0726\/6890\/5701\/files\/s19524.jpg?v=1770308013"},{"product_id":"crescent-mounting-board","title":"Mounting Board","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhite surfaces for clean display work, gray tones for photography and color-critical mounting, and economical chipboard for everyday backing applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3X White Mounting Board features buffered, acid-free surface papers on both sides, essential when you're unsure which face will be visible or when both sides need presentation quality.
