I agree! Same story with some neon green monokote the color just detaches from the film and super hard to shrink. They have changed something. And man does it smell, I had to clear the room after opening a new roll. A year ago I wouldn't buy anything but Monokote but probably never will again. Just used some Towercote and works great. It is low temp but comes out perfect very easily. It is thinner but I would say it is almost as strong
