Fine Art Prints are delicate and require proper care when removing from shipping containers and packaging, as well as during storage and transportation to the frame shop.
The following guidelines will help ensure the safe handling of your fine art prints:
Removing from Shipping Containers and Packaging:
• Carefully open the shipping container and packaging to avoid damaging the print.
• Gently remove the print from the packaging, taking care not to bend or crease it.
• Handle the print by its edges only, to avoiding any fingerprints or smudges on the surface.
Storing and Transporting the Print to the Frame Shop:
• If you aren’t framing immediately, store the print in a flat, cool place, away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.
• Reuse the acid free glassine paper as a protective sleeve or if possible store the print in a protective art portfolio case.
• If possible, transport the print in a rigid sturdy container, portfolio case, or reuse the mailing tube to prevent damage during transit.
By following these guidelines, you can help preserve the integrity of your fine art print and ensure it remains in its best possible condition.
