Wilson 43 Posted May 3, 2019 So other than the obvious that stretch is made to stretch more, what are the reasons for using one vs the other? Can you just use stretch for everything (even if it's not stretchy athletic wear)? Thanks, Chad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wildgoose 4,200 Posted May 4, 2019 Yes Stretch is great for everything that regular is and more. Costs a little bit more but worth it IMO. Not as many colors and if you happen to leave the inside of a letter when weeding you can usually heat and pluck regular but not stretch or not as easy. This is especially true on polyester. Other benefits of Stretch are that is doesn't show wrinkles nearly as much. Some HTV benefits from being regular such as gold or silver on garments that have a heavy weave the regular will end up with a cool look from the weave that gives it almost a reflective quality that stretch does not produce. Gold and Silver regular have a shiny look and the stretch variant not as shiny. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wilson 43 Posted May 5, 2019 Thanks for the replies! I was hoping that was the case that you could use stretch on everything you can use regular. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
