Xanthor-
Would you mind my asking what applications you have used this for and how it worked for you? Unfortunately, I don't have a swatch, but I've seen it listed and have wondered what it is like. Is it a heavier polyester flag material, more of a silk type feel, or something else altogether?
I'll try but forgive me if my description is too artsy - Ive been surfing art sites all night! LOL
Its a polyester fabric that ... well okay its strange stuff. When I used it I printed two and grommeted them together and it worked lovely - it flapped in the wind like a flag and sounded like a flag. Its very similar to the HP paper backed fabric material only I think a bit more weather durable.
My only dissapointment was that it wasnt the kind of material that soaked up the ink to the point you could print on one side and then like "Dye" the fabric clear through. I would say its about 40% opaque on its reverse side.... but then we dont use dye ink do we
If I could figure out how to apply it to a window it reminds me of a really fine window perf.. Its actually a "feature" of the fact that it doesnt really print two sided. Actually it really would be an awesome window perf ... in leiu that stuff is like $600 a roll it would be a fabulouso window perf! haha! Heck even one of my art customers who saw one of the flags I printed suggested that if you could stick it to a window it would be ... well I think 'really cool' was the words he used. Which I thought was interesting when you consider hes an art head printing photos on canvas and selling them at the art center.
I also thought it would make really good door hanger material like alot of the college kids use to hang the giant photos of whatever on their doors. You know our papers are so picky when it comes to crimping whereas you could flap this stuff around all day. I am going to print one (a 36 x 74") and hang it in the doorway of our printer room .... like a door screen to keep the retail customers out .... just as soon as I'm done designing it.
