Troubleshooting
Paper is creased or buckled.
Ensure the roll is stored vertically and has not been compressed. If minor creases are present, try unrolling a significant length and letting it hang for a period. For severe creases, a new roll may be necessary for critical applications.
Unwanted reflections on the surface.
Ensure your lighting setup is angled correctly to minimize direct light bouncing back. The matte finish is designed to reduce reflections, but lighting placement is key.
Support system is unstable.
Check that the background stands are on a level surface and securely locked. Ensure the crossbar is properly attached and balanced. Distribute the weight evenly if using multiple rolls or heavier items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Colorama LL CO110 Background Paper requires a dedicated background support system. This typically involves stands and a crossbar to suspend the roll. Unroll the desired length of paper and secure it to the crossbar. It is recommended to store the roll vertically using a holder like the Colorgrip (LL COPAPERGRIP) to maintain its flatness and prevent damage.
Compatibility: This background paper is compatible with most standard photographic and studio background support systems. Its universal core size allows it to fit typical crossbars.
Care: As a disposable background paper, extensive 'care' is not required. However, to maintain its quality before use: avoid exposing it to excessive moisture or direct sunlight, and store it vertically to prevent creasing or buckling. Handle the roll carefully when setting up and taking down to avoid accidental tears or punctures.
