What is the best material for a dust cover?
It depends! Do you want reliable protection or extra protection? Classic style or premium flair? At Printer Boy, we offer two main printed dust cover materials—Thin Fabric and Vinyl Premium—each designed to suit different needs, setups, and tastes. Let’s break down the advantages so you can pick what fits your collection best.
Fabric Specifications
Fabric Thin (Polyester)
Our Polyester Fabric has long been a favorite, known for its breathable nature that provides flexibility and a soft cloth-like feel and appearance. However, due to its lightweight design, it offers only partial protection against water and prolonged dirt. Nonetheless, its airy texture ensures a delightful wearing experience, making it a popular choice for those seeking both style and practicality.
Vinyl Premium (Faux Leather)
The epitome of durability and strength, offering a thicker and sturdier pleather option (maybe even a touch too sturdy for some). Uncompromising in its robustness, Vinyl Premium embodies reliability and resilience, providing an enduring shield against dust and wear. Rest assured, your console is protected by the toughest pleather variant available, engineered to withstand the rigors of time.
Vinyl Clear
For those who yearn for simpler times, Clear Vinyl beckons with its timeless simplicity. Offering essential waterproof and anti-static properties, it provides a straightforward yet effective shield against dust and moisture. With Clear Vinyl, enjoy the purity of transparent protection, allowing your console to shine through unhindered, reminiscent of a bygone era where simplicity reigned supreme.
What is the best material for a game box protector?
When it comes to safeguarding your game boxes, figures, or collector’s editions, the material matters. You want something clear enough to showcase your collection and tough enough to protect it. That’s why we use PETG—a premium plastic that’s PVC-free, archival-safe, and built for long-term preservation without yellowing, warping, or cracking over time.
PETG Thin (0.40mm)
Our 0.40mm Thin PETG protectors offer a lightweight, slim profile ideal for tight shelving or bulk storage. Despite the slimness, they provide strong protection against dust, scratches, and minor handling while keeping your display crystal clear. A great choice for maximizing space without compromising on care.
PETG Thin (0.60mm)
Need a bit more strength? The 0.60mm Mid PETG protectors are the perfect upgrade for prized items or heavier boxes. With enhanced rigidity and resistance, they’re better suited for shipping, stacking, or long-term archiving. Still crystal clear and archival-safe—just tougher all around.
