Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Description states 10' x 12' - 10 feet wide or high?

A: This is ten feet tall by twelve feet wide.

Q: 2. I would like to use this as a flooring for a shoot. I'm specifically looking for it to be reflective. Would that only be achieved using the glossy side? I saw in previous comments that it would cause a lot of hot spots. Is the matte side reflective at all?

A: Since this Infinity Vinyl Background is white, it would be reflective on both sides.

Q: 3. How well does it block light? Obviously it doesn't block 100% of light coming through, but is it effective enough to use as a window covering on location?

A: The Impact Muslin Background (Black, 10 x 12') would not be ideal for covering a window to block light. You would be much better using duvetyne like the TRP WORLDWIDE Duvetyne / Commando Cloth (8 x 8'), B&H # TRS8, MFR # S8.

Q: 4. Does the metal spring fall off easily like the clothes one?

A: No, the C-47 Production Clips are strong and reliable.

Q: 5. How is the thickness

A: The background is opaque and should be fine if there are no lights behind it (in front of a window, etc.). I would purchase it again.

Q: 6. I've read the reviews and a lot of them mention how heavy the rolls are. Please could you tell me the weight of a roll of 8'x20' white vinyl? Just want to make sure I get a background stand that can hold it!

A: It weighs in at 22 pounds. I use Photoflex backdrop stands and pole to support it and it holds it just fine. It is bulky to transport and I have thought about cutting it into two rolls, but it is a nice vinyl backdrop.

Q: 7. Is this machine washable?

A: Yes.

Q: 8. How long is this roll pulled all the way down? I understand its 5' by 7' but how long is the roll?

A: It is 5 feet wide by 7 feet long.

Q: 9. Can I put it in the dryer?

A: Yes this can put in a dryer on a low setting.

Q: 10. I'm getting sagging wrinkles in mine. It's hanging from an Impact wall mounting kit but weather I'm hanging just enough so it's not touching the floor, or pulled all the way out so it's covering the floor and wall, I still get sagging wrinkles. Fortunately these aren't showing up in the photos as I'm blowing out the background, but they definitely would show up if I weren't. I tried clamping the edges to a C-stand to pull it taught and that helped a bit but it would have taken several clamps to get it fully clean. Am I doing something wrong, or is this normal, or ? Thanks!

A: I use mine only to blow out the background - not gray yet. I have only noticed my crossbar sagging ever so slightly - if I changed the light setup to get gray I don't feel the amt. of sagging would be a problem for me. I can't tell you that you are doing anything wrong - just share what I have done/experienced. My guess is your cross bar is not strong enough. I do use clamps to pull a different colored canvas more tight but not the white vinyl - works-ish but is a pain (I feel your pain). I use the photoflex background holder and keep it as close to 9' wide as possible (9' + couple inches. This crossbar system isn't perfect for other reasons, but what is, right?) I did see a photo of a photogs setup where he used a length of wood as his crossbar held up by 2 stands - no sagging at all. I also wonder if your stands are a lot more than 9' apart causing more sag. I have left mine on the cardboard core. One last thought: If mine did sag and that showed in the resulting photos I'd be tempted to put an extra stand in the middle, behind the background to hikeup the center just a touch . . . maybe with a speedlight foot on the top as not to damage the roll . . . does any of this help? I love this backdrop -- all the best!
