from my expierences the vinyl that has the furry type backing on it does not stretch as good as a clean backed vinyl, there is a trick to stretching vinyl tho, and thats using a heat gun, or a hair drier which will make the vinyl more flimsy and rubbery for getting precise curves, but you must be careful not to heat it up too much or stay in one spot too long because it will shrink the vinyl or cause blisters ruining the finish.

One more trick... use good glue! don't just get some cheap glue! the stuff we use when doing vinyl we shoot out of a gun... and truthfully i think it is contact cement... the can has no label on it... lol but it acts like contact cement.
