Common Questions
Q: Do I need special equipment to use these shrink bags?
A: A standard heat gun works perfectly — no expensive shrink tunnel needed. These PVC bags shrink at low temperatures, making them easy to use in a home workshop or small studio. Just place your item inside, gather the open end, and apply even heat until the film shrinks tight.
Q: What size items fit in an 8x12 shrink bag?
A: The 8x12" size works great for items up to about 6-7" wide and 10-11" tall, leaving room for the film to shrink and seal. Common uses include soap gift boxes, boxed candles, small craft kits, media cases, and stationery sets.
Q: What's the difference between 100 gauge and 80 gauge?
A: Gauge refers to thickness — 100 gauge is slightly thicker and sturdier, providing better protection and a tighter wrap. 80 gauge is thinner and works well for lighter-weight items where you want a close-fitting wrap without as much bulk.
