Default Has anyone used the "Spectra Elasticut" material

This is my first time using this material, it's a little different than im used to (eco-film plus). When i pressed my shirts with the design and peeled away the clear mylar it looked like a clear layer of the film remained on the mylar.......does anybody know if this is usual? i just wanna make sure the garment isn't flawed before i give it away.

im making christmas gift ;0P

just wondering how your shirts turned out using the elasticut.i bought some from imprintables a while back,i used it a few times and i decided it was to difficult to use. maybe i was using it wrong or maybe i was just too impatient,but i had horrible results with it.

hey santos,
yeah.....it was really difficult to use the first couple of times because it required a lot more attention than the the regular eco film. i'm still not sure if my application was correct either, it seems not to many others have used this film judging from the lack of responses to this thread..........i also ordered the "alloy" film which i had no luck with at all......it was really really difficult to weed. ive tried to ask some reps at imprintables about both these films but its really hard to explain these things over the phone and i think there was a lack of understanding :0/
anyways, to answer your question i think they turned out alright.....i liked the elasticity of the resulting print....i'm just concerned about how well they look after washing, since i gave these away as Christmas gifts.........i have'nt gotten any negative feedback yet, so i'm assuming they're all good :0P

Here's a pic of one of them....peeps :0)
