Hi,

I wondering who's working with the new Coastal paper. I don't see good things for my sweatshirts with this paper. 80/20 blend. I see white between the ribbing. (the image is a little rough like lightsandpaper, I don't prefer that to the ironall.) Anyone having any issue like these? I'd like the white between ribbing to go away, and try to get the image softer.

I prepressed 20 secs, pressed at 375, 30 seconds, med/high pressure, c88+ ink.

Stretched and repressed 6 secs.

Anyone else seeing anything like this? Is there a better way to press this?
Any advice, I'd be so grateful...


PS: Tests on 50/50 hw jerzees (I use that b/c ironall does not have a fade issue on those) went super dee duper - but the ironall test shirt I did side by side did great too, so no knocking the ironall on the above shirt for me. again, image sandpaper'y for sofstretch, did not change after wash much. Also did my usual 2nd test with warm water/med high heat dryer for 25 minutes and both did excellent again. no change. only difference was ironall shirt has light white fiber raising through image giving it a slight aged look. little bit.

more concerned how to use sofstretch on sweatshirts. may stick with ironall for them but I hope someone can give insight. thanks!!!!
