This background paper is primarily used as a seamless backdrop for photography, videography, and creating displays for retail or events.

How do I prevent creases in the paper?
The paper is supplied on a sturdy tube to minimize creasing during transit. Handle it carefully during setup and avoid folding. Store the roll vertically to prevent sagging.

Troubleshooting
Background appears creased or wrinkled.
Gently unroll a fresh section of the background. For minor creases, try hanging it taut for a period. Ensure the roll is stored vertically on its tube to prevent sagging.
Uneven lighting due to reflections.
Ensure your lighting is set up to minimize direct reflections onto the paper's surface. The mat finish is designed to reduce this, but angled lighting can help.
Roll is difficult to mount on the support system.
Check that the crossbar of your support system is straight and of a suitable diameter to fit through the tube. Ensure the tube is clear of any debris.
Color rendition is not as expected.
Verify your camera's white balance settings. The 'Coffee' color is a neutral cream, but lighting conditions and camera settings can affect perceived color.
