    Do you guys know if the HQ screen from Cory is better / different material?
    I don't have the HQ screen yet, but I believe somebody else here has the screen by itself and can answer your question. I would like to know also. I just don't remember who it was.

    I don't know about the screen by itself as I have it doubled up with my old screen.

    My screen was from netting masters. Its a little off white but very heavy, soft and quiet. Mine does not leak light.

    I thought you had bought your screen material from Ebay. This must be you new screen?

    How do you like it. That is awesome that it doesn't leak light. How is the picture quality?

    My nettingmasters net is the one I planned to replace with ebay cordura 1000d screen (needed bigger size). When I got the cordura from ebay, I returned it. I am still using the nettingmasters. Mine is only
    8 X 6.5.

    It's great screen. I have a 2600 lumens projector 10ft away and there is no light leak. The thickness and softness of this fabric is miles away from a the cordura 1000d that i got from ebay. in terms of picture quality, i mentioned that the color is off white. there is a coating that makes it somewhat glossy. if you have a bright projector, this should not be an issue.
    it has a rougher (wooven) texture, so the text will not be as sharp. Trust me, this screen is very durable.

    When you say off white, is it leaning towards grey? If so, then it's actually better than white as far as picture quality is concerned.

    Lets just say it's not ultra bright white like a typical projector screen. But it is white.

    Can the material purchased from Cory at Par2Pro be sewn on a regular sewing machine? I'm thinking it would be nice to have the edges hemmed before the grommets are added. My wife said she should do it if the cloth isn't so course that it breaks the sewing needle.
