The back of the painting and frame edges can be covered with a sheet of acid-free paper to provide dust protection. Bumpers can be attached to the reverse bottom corners of the frame to allow air flow behind the painting when hung on a wall. A good framer will understand most of the terms and procedures outlined in this handout. Your framer should not, at any time, try to use non-archival materials or try to apply any kind of tape or adhesive to your painting. All rights reserved.
