    Does anyone have any ideas about a convenient way to store Plexiglas vitrines so they do not get scratched or damage? Thanks Karen

    Hi Karen,

    We usually wrap them in mover's blankets or ethafoam then shrink wrap and store them in an area where they won't get moved around. A "low" or "No" traffic area of the museum is the best place to store so there is less chance of someone disturbing them and causing damage.

    Hope that helps!
