5.0 out of 5 stars 10 Years of Experience with this Product! July 30, 2011

By J. Parr

This product is not very frilly: It is sanded sheets of thin(ish) plastic. The pre-sanded surface is a nice perk, since sanding it by hand is kind of a pain, and also not as uniform. To get the best out of your shrinky dink experience, there are four things to know:
1.) Use Prismacolor pencils to color the rough surface, it is the BEST colored pencil on the market, and the best for shrinky dinks
2.) To get really great color saturation, don't use a light hand in drawing/coloring, use plenty of pressure and define your lines clearly and remember that it's going to SHRINK, so make letters and details very articulated, and if you're making necklaces, earrings, etc. punch the holes BEFORE you shrink it! While that seems obvious, you'd be amazed at how many people forget that step.
3.) When you put your shrinky dink in the oven and it curls up like crazy: DO NOT PANIC, it will flatten out if you wait... and if it doesn't uncurl all the way, use a spatula and tongs to guide it while under the heat to flatten it. You can also shape it a little when it's out of the oven. I use a toaster oven, and I always keep my oven mitts handy!
4.) Yep, it's plastic, some sanding may be necessary, and to seal it, use Krylon Clear Coat in glossy or flat to preserve it.
I have been teaching crafts for 10 years now, and I have to say, hands down, everyone freaks out when it's time to make Shrinky Dinks, it's a favorite.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Shrinky Dinks November 22, 2011

By Staff Sgt. Max Fightmaster

I like this better than the clear and white plastic, it holds up better in the oven, the colors stand out better, and the end result is usually much nicer. Don't use those knock off brands of shrinky dinks paper, they're just not worth it. For the price and size of these, it's the best value.
