NuFun Shrink with Ink Inkjet Printable Shrink Film Arts & Craft Activity (8.5x11,Matte White) 100 Sheets

This is the best shrink film I have tried. It is also the best value. I have tried three different products and this one does the job very well. I did notice that the one I printed out portrait turned out a tiny bit fatter than the one I printed out landscape, but it's not very noticeable. The other two brands I tried were either very distorted to the point that I had to cut parts off after they had shrunk, or they were coated with a film that caused rough edges when I used a Cricut cutter and the ink to run when sealed with my favorite sealer. If you are serious about your final product, you won't waste your time with other brands. I also notice that I don't have to make my printed image as light with these as I had to with other brands. When shrink film shrinks, it makes the image darker, which means that if you want your colors to be true after shrinking, you have to lighten your design before you print it. With the other two brands I tried before this one, I would have to lighten my images so much that I would lose detail. That is not the case with this product.

THIS IS NICE PLASTIC. I have been designing/making shrink jewelry for 15+ years. My all-time favorite was JanLynn, then Shrinky Dink (I still have a couple of hoarded cases of them), then Darcie's (still have about 300 sheets of this from when it was still golden). They have all fallen off the face of the planet, either out of business, or the quality took such a horrible dive I quit buying it and went overseas and everywhere else looking for better stuff. Now, there IS the dreaded SKEW that so many of us lament (which has to do with HOW the plastic is stretched when it is heated during manufacture). BUT, the skew isn't HORRIBLE. I made some circles and they are a little 'OFF', but nothing earth-shattering. Believe me, some of the other plastics out there are absolutely terrible. THIS PLASTIC IS NICE AND THICK, HAS SMOOTH EDGES (NOT THOSE SHAGGY SAND PAPER EDGES), AND IS RIGID ENOUGH TO HOLD A PIN BACK WITHOUT BENDING AWAY FROM IT. Please guys, DO NOT CHANGE YOUR FORMULA. YOU WILL BE AROUND FOR A LONG TIME IF YOU STICK TO SELLING A QUALITY PRODUCT! I will most definitely be back :)

I'm giving this company 5 stars for how they handled their defective product line as of recently. It wasn't their fault that the product was unstable from what they usually got (because their product was awseome!!!) the company making their paper changed something and NuFun handled it exactly how a good company should (Morgan has been amazing!!!!). They issued refunds, pulled the product, responded to unhappy customers in a professional manner, and offered everything they could do in their power to correct the problem. I'm anxiously awaiting their new Shrink with Ink to come out because i'm sure when it does it will live up to the standards all the positive reviews made it out to be. I would highly reccommend getting on their mailing list (through nu fun activities) which will inform you when they've come out with a new recipe. =DJudith-

This product works in a similar manner as the trademarked SHRINKY DINKS. The only problem I've had with this product is that when shrinking round items, they end up more of an oval shape. The ink adheres well. The overall value of this product is great. I would not hesitate to buy this product again.

I love it! Would so buy again, it printed perfect on my canon pro 100, I Recommend putting the brightness up on images or use lighter colors because the colors darken when shrinked. It hard to cut on the cricut made a special cut setting for this material, I set the custom cut to 340 at 3x

Printing on these were great. Cutting was easy.... that’s where it all stops....Shrinking is really uneven! And if your trying for like items, your not going to get it. I have taken a few of the pictures of the shrink items, prior to shrinking each like picture was the same size . As you can see they , after shrinking did not even turn out the same size, more some the right shape. The blue flag should have shrunk like a rectangle not a square! The yellow Eevee boardered piece should have also shrunk into a rectangle . And even though the pictures of the pidgys are mirrored images, they two should have looked exactly the same after shrinking as they were only mirrored not size shanged before printing.

So overall i'm happy with my purchase but it took some time to dial in the best method to keep projects flat and get the colors to print correctly. Originally purchased so my daughter could make and sell Key-Chains for a school project. Flatness: After some trial and error we found the best method to keep them from curling was to place the cutouts on a baking sheet between sheets of Parchment paper then add a flat cooling rack on top to hold them flat. Color: In terms of color saturation and ink you'll need to lighten the image contrast to make it pale prior to printing since as the plastic shrinks the colors become more bold and pronounced (we landed at about 25% lighter).

Was very apprehensive. It is thin, grainy, and a little sticky. But I am overall pleased with the results!! That flatten easier than shrink dinks, and you do have to feed the paper one at a time. The ink takes a while to dry. If you don’t want flaws be careful when handling printed parts. The design came out great I can’t wait to do more!
