Bill (or anyone), any thoughts on what's being used to wrap paintings these days? I used to buy big rolls of polyethylene but this archival art materials dealer is pushing Tyvek Soft Wrap. They claim it's better than polyethylene AND glassine. I would like something I could use for paintings but also my stretched paper pieces, that (a) wouldn't react and (b) would be easy to tape and untape. I'm also looking at archival shipping/packing tape.
i wish i knew off hand tom. perhaps steve michelle or ruth know better. i thibnk when my piece was returned from slough it was in bubble wrap. ill look arround and see whats going on.
Thanks. Probably what I will do is order a small "test" roll and if I like it order more. That supplier is on 57th but it looks like they don't have walk-in facilities to examine stuff.
Bubble is probably best for short hauls. It's too bulky for my stacks of er, inventory.
