Best Paper to Roll Posters in

RKREKRKREK Poway, CA Posts: 102
I will be selling some posters soon on Lost Dogs and I was wondering what is the best type of paper to roll the posters in for shipping?  I figured some people are experts on this and would be able to provide some helpful info.

Thanks!

    Shhesh the op is just trying to get some advice here.

    Brutal.

    If you use tp, use the cheap stuff. Soft may have lotion which will stain poster.
    Also don't use it first, unless it's a baby brain or a wolfbearpigman.

    (Good luck with your sales. I still can't part with mine yet)

    Acid free paper 

    ^Check your local art store.  They might have it for sale by the foot, or by the roll.  Ask for acid-free, dye free paper.  Archival paper if you're feeling rich.

    Not newsprint

    Not that crap ass craft paper...why this is used is beyond me, highly acidic.  Cheap yes, stiff yes, good for paper art, no

    Acid free anything should do.  No real need to get thick grade/more expensive stuff.
