UV Protection Glass โข Museum Glass, by romanywg on May 11, 2007 22:39:53 GMT 1, I've framed this screenprint about 20 years ago and it is right against the glass, no spacers, hadn't even heard of them then. It hasn't faded at all. Also I think I cut the bottom off the print to get it into the frame, cutting off the edition number and signature! Let's say it's all a learning curve!

mind you I just bought 4 of the 100cm by 70cm frames from habitat and I haven't bothered with the whole acid-free thing... I LOVE acid.

I replaced the backing of my Habitat frames with Corrie-Core which is acid free and also a lot less dusty than the hardboard back they do come with.

Actually I was wrong it's called Corrie-Cor, I've just googled it and even though it's a registered trade mark brand name, nothing is coming up, try asking your framer. Basically its like a good quality cardboard, pretty strong and rigid.

UV Protection Glass โข Museum Glass, by misnomer on Aug 25, 2007 15:35:51 GMT 1, (or perspex for that matter)
does it really make any difference?
I came across this article where they've deliberately put prints in a situation of extreme exposure to daylight and compared fading & discolouring between unprotected and protected areas
www.ukiyoe-gallery.com/sunfade.htm
OK these are Japanese woodblock prints, one in 'modern' inks, one not and this doesn't directly relate to the inks and paper stocks that the work most of us collect are done on or with, but the results would suggest that it really makes, practically, fuck all difference.
I know there's at least one pro framer (Misterframeman) on here and several galleries, artists, printers... so does anyone have any damaged/NG/reject prints and access to an 'off-cut' of UV glass or perspex and feel inclined to conduct their own experiment and post results over time? Or has anyone here already done something like this?
Or has anyone other ref or links that come to an opposite conclusion?
Sure we all want the best possible protection for our precious Art, but are the various glass manufacturers and their glossy (pseudo?) scientific explanations hyping their product beyond real world results or practical worth?

I've got a 40x60 original painting on paper. Not sure if I should use glass or the plexi. Can somebody advise? Btw - the piece is of considerable value. I already put the frame order in - $2000 usd. I chose an expensive custom frame and the framer recommended the glass.
Thanks in advance

UV Protection Glass โข Museum Glass, by slacker on Nov 2, 2007 22:57:55 GMT 1, does anybody know how much uv glass normally costs?
my local framer has quoted me ยฃ250 for uv glass for my giwtbb (which admittedly is a pretty big print) as opposed to ยฃ20 for normal glass.
my mate contacted a glazer about uv glass (although there did seem to be a variety of options including bandit proof glass??? which apparently gets used by the national museum) but for the same size of glass the most he was quoted was ยฃ50.
was he asking for the wrong thing? should it be ยฃ250 for glass for giwtbb?

ยฃ250 extra or inclusive? extra is way too much. Mine cost extra ยฃ120 for Miraguard which is UV and white see through not green and very nice

my mate is actually a joiner to trade. i have been trying to convince him for a while that he should consider doing picture framing. he has looked into it a bit but hasn't been able to find any courses.
the one thing i had considered in the short term is getting prints which won't be anywhere near direct sunlight framed up with normal glass but then replace it at my leisure if i truly can pick up uv glass for that sort of price.

cheers mate that's very useful.
the framer said the uv glass he was quoting ยฃ250 for would only shut out 95% of uv (he was advising against the extra expenditure and suggesting that i should just find a place away from direct sunlight).
i'm not sure if he was allowing for spoilage. he did say that he had to take off the edges because you could see where the glass had been held while it was dipped and that the uv protection scratched quite easily.

For ~70 cm x 70cm Frame - Normal Glass ยฃ8.40 Conversation Glass extra ยฃ33.60 Did not ask about Museum Glass but my reckoning extra ยฃ117.60
In the end went for Conservation Glass although was tempted to take the risk!!!!

my quote was ยฃ250 for 1260mm by 960mm of uv glass vs ยฃ20 for the same size in normal glass. depending on the cost of the glass included in the ยฃ150 then that seems pretty reasonable.

Is it float glass? UV glass??
Anti-glare is great stuff but in my experience with sharp photography images you do lose a bit of sharpness, I'm probably on the point of OCD about stuff like this

i guess how great it is depends how well it is cleaned also... is there specific wipe/spray etc to keep clean? has anyone got and realised it just seems to attract dust?
any info would really appreciate and thanks for taking the time to read...s

I got 2 sheets of it for by Banksy prints, but I'm not sure about using it for everything. My Banksy prints hadn't faded behind the normal glass and they were up for a couple of years !!

UV Protection Glass โข Museum Glass, by gozgoz on Apr 28, 2008 23:21:57 GMT 1, yeah someone did tell me u had to use a special spray to clean it. cos if someone touches it, and in all likelihood thats what usually happens because they cant see the glass... its impossible to wipe away the fingerprints. true?

So basically, it's bollox!
