Looking for Alternative to High Priced Print&Cut Application mask

I usually reuse my solvent htm mask until its tackiness fails to the point where I can't pick my design up anymore without some major squeegeeing. I'd say you can squeeze at least a dozen out of the same piece of tape. I usually use Stahls products, so I've used both Solutions Opaque mask like that as well as their eco print mask.



I've also reused other HTM tape before from like Siser Easyweed (know it's pretty much the same as Fashion Film) if it was just a single print.



As to the other media question, I haven't followed the advances as much through the years, but am pretty sure that the white/bright transfers will have less of a hand, but the opaque ones will generally have more of a hand than say Solutions opaque, but might be similar to the color print. Problem is you will still need to cut/trim that heat transfer paper, where your Versaworks will handle that all in one operation of print/cut.
