I performed a head to head comparison of this paper with the 3G Jet-Opaque. I washed the test samples 10+ times under the worst conditions because I assume this is what my customers will do (not inside out, with towels, jeans, whites, hot dryer). Both samples weathered extremely well with no cracking or peeling. Overall I prefer the InkFlex Dark over 3G Jet-Opaque. It is MUCH easier to remove from the backing paper, has a softer feel after 10 washings (3G ends up with a crinkly paper sound when flexed), and the perimeter of the design blends/melts into the fabric much better than 3G. However, 3G beat InkFlex in the color comparison. InkFlex prints an ever so slightly faded design and after washing, continued to fade a very small amount. 3G kept it's color throughout. Bottom line, even with the very slight fading, I prefer this paper over 3G and have chosen it as THE paper to use for my dark shirts. I am giving it 4 stars due to the slight fading. |
