RE: [Digital BW] Framing with "almost" no mat

2004-09-18 by Stan Shire

The spacer sold by Light Impressions is the least expensive in Frametek's
line. They have others that might be of interest. We've been using the
Framespace and love the results.

Light Impressions (and certainly others) sells strips of clear vinyl
spacers. They have an adhesive on one side so they can be held in place on
the glazing. They come in various depths.
