The guy i have bought my equipment from left me one box of A3 Iron On Dark paper. I played some days with it with a mixed result.
Here are my impressions, having in mind it could have not been stored properly, though it's still in its cardboard original package:
1.The Good
-Its some kind of vinyl like material. Prints Ok and peels off OK from the backing paper. With some extra care no backing is needed. Print, peel off and apply.
-Once applied properly is unbreakable. Not stretchy, very good feel, almost like HTV . Seems quite durable and wash resistant. When applied have a small amount of that nasty papery feel and sound, but when washed this disappears. And many people agreed it is really nice to the touch.
2. The bad
Impossible to cut properly with my roland GX cutter with brand new knife on slowest speed and lowest tuned pressure. The top surface layer scratches and "dusts" . See picture. With scissors is ok, so no problem there. My roland is in like new shape and cuts perfectly whatever material i throw at it, so the problem is in the outermost layer of the paper.
3. Conclusion
It would have been an ideal material as advertised for dark cotton T shirts, if it was able to cut without rough edges. Basically i could say its good for logos or whatever, if you print borders same color as material and cut over them. And handle it with care.
So for the price its good for occasional use to save a situation, but i would not buy it or invest in it. Definitely good if you like ugly A4 patches on T shirts or if the design could be cut with scissors.
So its overpriced amateurish crap. Having in mind the price per sheet and the shady result.
