JetPro Soft Stretch fake
Hello all, I just received my
JPSS from T-shirtSupplies.com and it doesn't have the usual blue grid and text on the back. I'm wondering if it's genuine? Mine just has a line on the back.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake If you bought it from t-shirtsupplies, then it is genuine
I think the mark is up to the vendor, I might be wrong, but you may contact Mike, and let us know what he says.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Hi Marcelo, I'm still new to this biz and have not ordered from t-shirtsupplies.com before so I have no idea. I used Coastal and they're more costly. Its a security issue. I just got a order from a school and don't want to mess up my first order.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake I among many others members of the forums have t-shirtsupplies as our favorite
JPSS supplier.
But like I said in my previous post, it would be a good idea to contact them and ask them about it.
But all in all I think you are safe

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Mine has blue grid lines, there was a couple from another package that only has some pencil traces
, think it came in a sample pack.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Why don't you try one, if after pressed it looks like a
JPSS , it stretches like a
JPSS and washes like a
JPSS , then it is a
JPSS

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Grab the corner of one of your sheets and see if you can nicely peel the polymer from the paper backer. If you can, it's almost assuredly
JPSS .
If it flakes, it absolutely is NOT
JPSS .

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake I just checked my package of
JPSS 11x17, unopened until now, and there is no mark on the back.
You should be fine.
But let see what Lou can add.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Lou has a trick for that. Tear your sheet a little. The backer will tear, and your polymer shouldn't. Either that, or you could take something pointy and see if you can lift a corner with it.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake Chani, thats what I did. The backing and polymer tear together! Its frustrating. I know thats what t-shirtsupplies.com says on their website but the product looks different. First, I'm worried that I mess up my first client and secondly got a generic. Just caught me off guard. Maybe I'm overly cautious.

Re: JetPro Soft Stretch fake I'm not sure what to say, then. Did you also try to lift a corner? You may poke through it, but it should help you lift it.
JPSS is a two-ply media, whereas most papers for lights aren't.
Other than that, I really can't help with this one. Sorry.
