Re: Black elastic vinyl: how to apply? This article might help as well:
Making my first custom t-shirt with cut vinyl, a vinyl cutter and a heat press
But if not, give Josh from imprintables a call and he should be able to walk you through it (in case you don't get an answer here).

Re: Black elastic vinyl: how to apply? Here's an application sheet. This material is kind of tricky, it has 3 layers in order to give it the elastic component.
From back to front:
Layer 1 Mylar Backing
Layer 2 Secret Stretchy Stuff
Layer 3 Actual Vinyl or Film
Cut through the first two layer, down to the mylar. Then follow this tech sheet: If you have any questions give me a call or post it
