Conservation Framing: 12 - The Back of the Frame

The video shows all what concerns the back of the frame: backing board, protection paper and bumpers.

Thank you for this series of videos. So helpful to those of us out here who create art and prefer to frame pieces ourselves to keep costs down. :)

What is the brown piece on the backing? The white corru-core was placed in and the next scene the backing was brown. Is it a conservation board or another color of corru-core? Great video. Thanks!

For others who may be wondering what that tool is called, if you google "framing driver" and look for ones that can use rigid pins you should be able to find something similar.

wow great stuff. iExcellent series. I shared with my photo club group. I couldnt make that sealing brown paper work at all for me. but the art guy at the store told me to use double sided tape and that didnt work for the MDF (man made material) frames which are non-porous which I use a lot. I think that sealing paper only works on wood frames that are porous?? Also I tried to cover the entire back with one big sheet. I see you only did 4 strips and that makes sense but my local art guy did do the whole back but they have all the tools and stuff to do it right. I just gave up and had to have it done for me

Is the gum tape acidic? Is that a problem?

Please tell me should I use a certain tape like the one you used, or can I use any tape?
