Ours are polypropylene, they are clearer as well.

 

I'll second this - I have bags from both.

 

HOTFLIPS has the better product.

I'll third this! :insane:

 

I also bought some mylars for slabs from Hotflips that are real nice but have a little tighter fit in a slab box.....

please for the love of G-d, do not use tape of any kind with any mylar enclosure. that is asking for a need to replace your bag when you go to open it

why is this? they tear easily?

 

Mylar + tape = mess

 

Unless you can find some less sticky tape. Stuff like scotch tape sticks to the mylar like glue. The adhesive and tape will separate.

 

I have had good luck with less sticky tape. Masking tape can do in a pinch, but there are nice translucent blue tapes that will work well with mylar. I just can't find where to consistently buy it.

Magic tape works fine with my mylite2s. I never use regular scotch tape, even on the polybags, now those are a mess.
