Darlene, The reason is because of the drape. It seems to flow with the fabric
no matter if it's a polynosic blouse or light tee shirt. I am absolutely sold
on the product and have used it for about 4 years now. No matter what type
fabric I have in the hoop, you can be sure poly or nylon mesh is being used. If
I am stitching a logo on a soft stretchy polo, no matter if it's a jersey or
pique, I will put down a tearaway first (against the fabric and sometimes with
a 505 spray adhesive to hold the stretchy fabric in place) and then a poly mesh
under that. The tearaway gives you extra stability in the hoop and the mesh
won't show throw lightweight fabric or look stiff around the logo like a normal
cutaway will. And, have you ever tried to pull on tearaway to get it tight in
the hoop...it tears as it is designed to do. Another thing I like about having
the tearaway against the fabric is that when you start cutting off the mesh,
you don't have to worry about cutting a hole in the shirt because the tear away
is still against the fabric. If I am doing twill shirts or denim, I use either
one or two layers of the mesh, (depending on the density of the design) and no
tearaway. HTH

Is there a reason why you would use either the nylon or poly mesh????

Sounds like poly or nylon mesh and you can find it just about
anywhere...Melco Mart, Dashew, RNK Distributors, Gunold, to mention a few.

Happy New Year Everyone!
I am looking for a backing that is on a Cheerleading shirt brought in
from a school.
It looks like a very durable soft feeling mesh. However it is not a
tearaway.
Using this mesh has allowed someone to embroider a rather large design on
the front of the garment which had a horizontal stretch to the material.
I am looking for a supplier of such a backing????
Thanks for any help!
Darlene
