Would encapsulating the mat board and print be a good way to protect from
environmental pollutants? I once read that if you want to put a print in a
bathroom or kitchen, that you should frame the dry-mounted print with glass
as the backing board, instead of using archival corrugated board. You then
band the edge of the glass, mat board, print, mat board, glass sandwich with
aluminum foil, which is then taped (with Mylar tape) to form a vapor
barrier.The extra glass would add weight and cost, and one would have to be
careful that the tape doesn't peek out from under the frame. Does this
soundlike a viable way to minimize print deterioration due to environmental
factors?
