What is the difference between mesh backed, paper face, and film face mounted tile?

Frequently Asked Questions
Paper-face mounting is the traditional mounting method for glass mosaic tile. Kraft paper is applied to the front surface of the glass tile with water-soluble glue. Once the tile has been mounted, and the thin-set mortar has cured, the installer moistens and removes the kraft paper. Similarly, film-face mounting is a clear sheet of adhesive film placed over the face of the tile. Once the thin-set mortar has cured, the clear film can be peeled off the tile face.

What's the difference between mounted, and un-mounted stamps?

That's for good reason... there's a lot less work and resources in an un-mounted stamp. An un-mounted stamp is just the rubber die, while a mounted stamp is the whole sha-bang... rubber die, cushion, and fully indexed wood mount. (Indexed means, we hand stamped the image of the image on the top of the wood mount. Nifty, eh?)
