Hey all,

A friend recently made a painting for us, which we need to ship overseas. I believe it's done with oils but we've noticed that since it was given to us rolled up, it already exhibits some marks from where the paint has rubbed.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what kind of protective packaging we can use, prior to placing it back in the tube? Framing it and sending isn't really an option for us at the moment. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
