Yes agree, green square down first (170 degrees, 20 seconds) and then place white on top. 3 letters look easy to weed but that little something in the top right hand corner of the text could be challenging!!

Or you could just print it on ink jet dark, no weeding required

no.no joke at all. I use to had a request from my photography club fr few t-shirts with pig holding a camera. pig was white simple countour line on orange background. i printed orange squere first and then the rest of the pig. after couple of washes white pig start coming off of the background. nothing huge. just a corners. And I used proper preasure and temps. also vinyl was suitable for multi layering. rest of t-shirts I did without background was ok.

I use MDP all the time Paul, including multi-layering and never had a problem with it ......................... must have just been a 'one off' incident?
