I shipped the painting in an airfloat box. The painting was a full sheet 22x30 on 300lb. paper. I used the Lineco gummed hinges when I framed the piece almost a year ago. Anyhow, I have to ship a couple of other paintings in the next few weeks, and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on how to keep the painting connected to the hinges during shipping.
