Shipping New Paint

Hey all,
I had my son repaint my detach outer fairing. I am unable to pick it up personally and want to ship UPS. How should the new paint be wrapped and protected from scratching? Just bubble wrap or something else?
Thanks, RR

Padded cushioning paper which is non-abrasive and then the bubble wrap over it.

Paint it with this stuff before boxing it. Spray it off when you receive it. I used this stuff on my car on a road trip and it works great.

No bubblewrap!

If bubblewrap is used, do not put the bubblewrap up against the fresh paint! Do not.
