I have not used that product.  I found my usual tape hanging (2 tapes) works
fine with an 800 mm x 400 mm image on the 210 paper, with an over-mat, of
course.

I hope the ITSupplies shipping works for you.  The prices are outrageously
low.

It's not a perfect paper, but for the price, it's an amazing deal.
