Grafix Inkjet Shrink Film has a general purpose inkjet coating that works in a variety of printers. It is not meant for any brand specifically. The coating is designed for dye based ink. There are some instances where it may work with pigment based inks, testing first is suggested. We always recommend testing the film first to make sure it works with the printer ink before printing your final design.
We don&#;t have information on the heat tolerance of the acrylic paint and we would recommend you contact the paint manufacturer. Depending on your product you could add the paint after the film has shrunk.
Yes, you can add designs to Shrink Film with permanent markers, paint pens and rubber stamps before and after baking.
It is not necessary to seal your finished pieces. However, you can protect pieces that will be handled often with a polyurethane sealer. See attached information on sealants. Shrink Film Sealer FAQ
Permanent markers/pens work the best on non-Inkjet styles of Shrink Film.
Shrink Film will curl up, then flatten back out, this is simply part of the shrinking process. Be patient while shrinking and wait for it to flatten out. If your film curls and sticks to itself, simply remove from the oven and using toothpicks or tweezers un-stick and return it to the oven. Placing a heavy weight vellum or piece of parchment paper on top of your projects while shrinking will minimize curling and sticking. Keep a spatula handy when shrinking so that you can use it to flatten projects as they are removed from the oven and still hot.
Try changing the printer settings to a thicker paper option &#; photo, glossy, etc. The available options will vary according to your printer model. If this solution does not work, we suggest contacting the printer manufacturer for additional assistance.
Both sides are printable.
Grafix has several styles of Shrink Film, check your packaging to make sure you have the Inkjet printable style, if not try using permanent markers or rubber stamps.
No, Shrink Film will shrink when exposed to heat. Laser printers/copiers generate heat while they process. Putting Shrink Film in either could cause serious damage to the equipment.
Yes, we suggest using tweezers or a stylus to hold the film while you heat.
All Shrink Film styles are .010&#; prior to baking (or the thickness of a business card).
There are many variables in how much Shrink Film will shrink, i.e. type of oven, temperature used, and time; in general Shrink Film will shrink to about 50% of its original size and become thicker.

Although this product doesn't perform as well for me as the Shrinky Dinks brand, it is a good buy. The pieces after baked are somewhat pebbly and quite often perfect circles and squares tend to elongate slightly.

The company is the world’s best copolyester shrink film supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.
Got this for the first time for my 2nd grader who is not very "arty". The paper the kit comes with is no fuss no muss. This paper you have to prepare the surface before using unless you are using a printer or possibly stamps. Keep in mind when buying for the little ones. Very good quality and MisterArt.com is great!

I never played with this stuff when I was little... and boy was I missing out on something fun. This stuff is fantastic and can be used to make so many different things. So far I've only used one sheet, and it surprised me at how much I could fit onto one sheet. Great stuff. Highly Recommended.

Excellent shrinkage. Compares very well to the leading shrink plastic. I have used both the leading and this and this one stands up just as well and you cant beat the price over the other brand.

GREAT FUN at such a GREAT PRICE (just like back in the "good ol' days"!) I used the white film first to make personalized bag-tags. It worked so perfectly that I can't wait to try the other film styles! Hints: Use 2 sheets of heavy vellum paper (especially for the larger pieces) on top of your work and one below it while baking...very minimal curling and sticking! Be sure to sand film first if stamping or if printing from computer. Permanent ink markers worked best all around for me. Let's face it...shrinking makes everything you create look even neater!

This product was fun and easy to use. Great value - I'm glad I bought extra! Just make sure if you are using acrylic paint, don't put it on too heavy. Just a light coat will do.

I enjoy working with this product because it is so versatile, I like to stamp on it, then color with chalk to make my own charm. Hope you get the black stuff in soon.

My daughter is an emerging shrink art artist with these great quality products. Consistant shrinking every time.

One of my all time favorite materials. You can make your drawing or stamping as detailed as you wish, and use the space you need to make it come out right. Then, you get to feel like a kid again as the plastic shrinks down to about 1/3 of its original size, but retains all the detail. The now tiny objects are now perfect for use in jewelry, because you get loads of detail without weight. It's a material that is simple enough for kids to use and get good results, and exciting enough for adults to want to try again and again.

Very pleased with the results. Easy to work with. Some slight curling but made 116 items and only lost 4 that could not be reshaped. Shipping was extremely quick and professionally done.

This is the absolute best rate for shrinky dink on the internet. Just sandpaper one side of each sheet, color, and bake! I used it to make cute cartoon wine ring charms, to use as gifts.
