Default Does Thermoflex Plus or Eco-Film Stretch?

I am looking to press vinyl onto a women's 2x1 ribbed tank. Being a newbie, I'm not familiar with either Thermoflex Plus or Eco-Film, but they seem to be the most popular. Will either of these stretch? What about the SPECTRA MEGAtallic? I'd love to find something stretchy with some sparkle, but it has to have a soft hand.

Thanks!

Thermoflex doesnt really stretch much once it is pressed.

I have pressed multicut on polyester-spandex and it worked awesome. I seen the woman a couple weeks ago and she said that's the best shirt she ever had done. I smiled and said "I wouldn't want it any other way."
