10'x20' Backdrop Storage Ideas


I was wondering if anyone has found a way to successfully store a 10x20 hand-painted muslin backdrop in a way to minimize wrinkles. I have even tried rolling mine on a 10'x2" section of PVC but still get wrinkles. Perhaps someone has a neat tip for rolling it up? I have used a wider aperture to minimize their appearance but it would be nice to not have them in the first place. Thanks in advance!

  What about trying to roll it around the cardboard tube that is inside rolls of carpet? The carpet store next to our shop just throws them away. It would be larger diameter and may cause less wrinkling.

  They also make PVC pipe in a larger diameter than 2 inches.
