Title: Shipping Watercolour giclee prints in a tube - best way to package?
Post by: Bullfrog on August 15, 2010, 06:27:00 pm
I'm starting up my new fine art photography business and offering watercolour giclee prints (German etching paper) which I would ship in a tube.

I have test printed one - and left it for 1 day - I then sprayed 2 coats of matte based laquer on it which under my solux bulb looked fine.   

My concern is that improperly packaged these prints will be scratched - particularly areas with matte black ink when in transit in a tube.

I'm thinking of either wrapping it in tissue paper and/or an acid free plastic bag to prevent scratching.

Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks
