Temporary storage ideas for proof coins please!

I have a couple of cameo franklin proofs that I intend on cracking out of their old holders, and sending in to PCGS. However, I'm a little concerned about what to put them into when I send them in. I've heard about how fragile the surfaces of proofs can be, and I have visions of accidently leaving nasty marks, scratches, etc. What's the best temporary storage method, if any? Vinyl flips, 2x2 holder, paper envelopes? I don't really feel like dorking up a choice looking 54 cameo franklin, so any suggestions would be welcome!

ET Kointainer Saflips 2.5x2.5 size. The best mylar flip available, period. Use the larger 2.5 so it's easier to get the coins in and out and reduce risk of damage.

If you put them in vinyl flips, you're likely to end up with hazed over coins.

can you just send them still in the slabs and have pcgs crack them out?
