RE: [Digital BW] UV Glass or not?

2007-02-06 by Eric Neilsen

Richard, I sell prints mounted on a suitable substrate and over matte.
Framing is also available but only at the request of the buyer. When I
display prints in frames, I don't use special glass unless the display
conditions require it; too much reflection for example. I do, let the buyer
know about the limitations of the glass. I would only go the extra yard when
the frame becomes part of the piece.

Subject: [Digital BW] UV Glass or not?

 

Hi,
I've always framed exhibition prints with plain glass because of the
published test results on fade resistance.

But I'm now a bit skeptical about Wilhelm's results on UC inks (and HP 59
inks) and wondered if most people were playing safe by using UV glass for
sale prints?

thanks,
Richard
