I finally had a break in the action and was able to try the ultraweed that I received this week and I’m impressed!

a) Cut like a champ – I used the same settings that I do for premium plus and it cut perfectly.

b) Weeding was a breeze. My main concern was the tackiness of the carrier sheet as I do a lot of fine detail work – but not a problem. Carrier sheet tack was perfect – I had zero issues with fine detail lifting during weeding.

c) I love the 2 second tack and peel for layering. I have a couple of designs that are a pain to layer due to the complexity of the designs – any shrinkage at all and I’m in trouble. With a 2 second tack that problem disappeared. For pressing on our Stahl’s Fusion IQ on a 100% cotton I used 300 degrees, 5 second pre-press, 12 second press, hot peel. It peels like a hot knife through butter – and oh that feel….

d) The feel — we love premium plus for the soft hand and stretch. Stahl’s did an amazing job again by creating ultraweed with a super soft hand. As a screen printer I was always leery of HTV as I thought it would feel like vinyl from the 80’s — this, in my opinion has equal if not better hand than white plastisol ink. After pressing on my first garment I couldn’t feel any transition between the garment and the vinyl. Did I say super soft already?

e) Economics – 15″ rolls to the rescue. Super affordable for the quality of product and for me less waste. I tried to gang images on my 20″ rolls of premium plus but 80% of the time I’m cutting 8″ off the side as waste. With 15″ rolls – very little waste.

We love premium plus and will continue to use it in our arsenal of Stahl’s vinyl (we are a 100% Stahl’s shop), but I think we found our new goto vinyl – ultraweed!

“We used the Metallic Silver on a black Bella 3001 for a customer wanting a tone-on-tone effect! They loved it!”
