Re: [Digital BW] Framing with no mat or spacer

sooner or later that print is going to stick to the glass. What are they thinking!
 
there is a product that can be used "interspacing" it is placed on the inner part of the rabbit on the frame and can't be seen. Check with your local framer that may sell you enough for this project. 
 
Good luck with educationing your client that this is not a good thing to do.

A client has asked for one of my prints framed with no mat, and no spacer.

I'm hesitant to do this -- worried that the print-glass junction 
could be a problem. Would there be condensation, moire rings, 
mildew? Would the print buckle a bit and leave a gap in some 
places? Or, or my fears groundless?

If I do end up using spacers of some kind, can you offer any 
guidance? Particular type, brand, style?

I print on matte papers -- typically proofing on EEM and final prints 
on Moab Entrada Natural. The brand may change, but this series won't 
be printed on a gloss or semi-gloss paper.

Thanks much,

Arthur Fink
