Sandy,
It is very dimensionally stable !! it does not move in between the wet and
dry stages I have been using it for 15 years and have seen no deterioration.
It is made from laminated polypropylene my method of printing is multiple
layering so I need a base that will give me pin sharp registration since
finding Yupo no problems
