Subject: Separating canvases
Recently we were given 22 paintings (oil on canvas, acrylics on canvas, and 2 with acrylics and gouache on canvas) which have been removed from their stretchers and rolled up to ship them. They are now lying in a stack. I cannot afford to have them stretched at this time. I have been advised to separate them with silicon-coated mylar but I'm having trouble finding a source. Can anyone help, or give an alternate material for separators?
