Let's see how these alternative transfer tapes work! Which is the least expensive? Which works the best? You might just be surprised at what we find out!

The sticky side that peels off after applying an iron on vinyl works GREAT as transfer tape too. I store it by applying it onto the slick side of freezer paper.

This was extremely helpful! I just recently got into doing vinyl decals, and finding a good transfer tape has been my biggest issue. The last tape I purchased was made by Cricut, the Strong Grip tape. It's horrible, it won't transfer the decal to the surface and it's actually even taken the finish completely off the vinyl decal itself. Again this video was very helpful! Thank You a Million Times over!!! 🤘💯

@AngieHolden 3 жыл бұрын

Strong grip is really only for glitter vinyl or a few other specialty types. You shouldn't use it for regular vinyl.

If your trying to use it for regular vinyl, dap your strong grip transfer tape to a micro fiber rag about 6 to 8 times to lessen the grip and you should be able to get by!

I would use a light tack transfer tape and stick it to your shirt a few times then try putting it on the paper. You can also use HTV on paper and that is usually a better outcome!
