Hai there,
I have plans to order some furniture from Indonesia and i would like to
pack the furniture in plastic which will be on top of the single face
carbon paper and store the furniture in my ware house and keep it in the
plastic for a while.
I wonder if packing in plasti9c and transporting it in a hot container
for 4 weeks to Europe if it could harm the furniture such as the
finishing?
I would appriciate if anybody could advice me.
THanks,
Albert

Sorry I can't advise you on your question but I would like to suggest
that you consider the possiblitiy of the wood containing boring insects
or their eggs. Perhaps you would want to have them fumigated which can
be done by a local exterminating company. I speak from experience since
I encountered a problem from wood I ordered from Mexico. Peace ~ Sir

DEar Sir,
Fumugation will be used standard, it is not allowed anymore to export
without fumigation.
Thanks,

Between the carbon paer and the furniture they put foam on it. Which is
nice soft material which will not scratch the furniture.
Putting paper on the finishing, I don't tink that is a good idea. Because
of all the print inkt on the paper. Especially with new newspapers.
Sorry but I think you are fooling around with me.

Plastic with air bubbles in it maybe? I do not know yet what they have.

Because it also need to absorb when you bumb into something and with stuffing. You have no protection any more
with just paper.

Evening Albert:
Please excuse a really STUPID QUESTION. "Why would you want to use
CARBON paper instead of a brown packing paper that is plastic coated
on one side, or some other clean paper that has NO ink on it?"
"Just an OLD man's inquiring mind wanting to understand."

It should be OK, but you don't say what type of plastic. There are
thousands of varieties. Styrene based plastics are stable to about 190
degrees and use for all sorts of protective packaging, including furniture.
Some vinyl materials can outgas and discolor things.

Yes (a recent post). You may find that the plastic wrapping and
the finish have become permanently attached. Use a paper layer
beneath, especially on corners (but not old newspapers !)

My take would be that unless you are shrink wrapping the furniture the
plastic would be the least of probable problems. Other then the fact
furniture gets shipped from Asia to all over the world all the time with
little problem that I know of there are too many variables, wood, glue,
climate changes, fasteners, joinery, etc. to say yours would fair well or
not..
