i'm pissed, i bought some ink jet shrink plastic and it curls like crazy.
the kind i bought before was awesome and worked perfectly but i can't find that kind any more.
this kind curls like it usually does when shrinking except it never goes flat. i tried to press it down but it doesn't actually stay down until you take it out of the oven and then you have like 2 seconds before it's too cool and hardens. plus manually flattening it results in a crappy finished product.
is there anything i can do to salvage this crappy shrink plastic?
perhaps a lower oven temp? i did follow the instructions precisely but maybe my oven is different...
p.s. it's Grafix ink jet shrink film FYI if anyone has any experience with it!
