Creative framing using frame and mount fillets and slips is becoming much more popular. Those that already do it know that whilst it can be a little fiddly, it can also be a source of significant extra cudos and profilt.
These plastic slips are easy to work with. They either clip over the edge of mount or stick to the reverse. They are cut using one of our slip cutters.
You may also be interested in our range of wooden slips.
Plastic slips come in 1.52m / 5ft lengths. They are only despatched in bundles of 20 lengths, so please make sure you order a total of 20 lengths. Single lengths may be collected at either of our trade counters.
