Whyis the vinyl tranfer tape taking the paint with it.
Now take that piece of transfer tape with the vinyl and line it up over the black layer of vinyl.
The first reason is because of its 50 foot long roll.
Today i have a fun thanksgiving fall sign and a free cut file down at the bottom i wanted to break it up and do a post that i should have done before this post but finally i m going to show you how to use transfer tape while we craft this fun sign and talk about why you need transfer tape in your vinyl stash.
It has an added 20 feet more in length a feat you won t be able to find even amongst the well known brands out there in the market.
Using a vinyl stencil on wood for your hand painted sign can sometimes be tricky.
First you need to get ahold of some transfer tape.
The strong hold transfer tape ruined my stencil vinyl project i didn t even take the chance on the regular hold transfer tape.
Painter s tape i prefer frog tape craft paint i m using cheap acrylic apple barrel type paint.
Line up the triangles perfectly on top of each other and your two layers should line up perfectly.
Some people use polycrylic for that step but it tends to pull up paint with it when you take off the stencil so then you have unintentionally distressed and patchy lettering.
Contact paper is also way less expensive than cricut transfer tape.
I have found that cricut vinyl transfer tape works well.
Get it as soon as wed sep 23.
Glitter vinyl is a challenge to work with.
After your first try you re probably asking yourself how do i stop the paint from bleeding under the stencil or why is my stencil pulling up paint when i take it off.
Using a scraper tool rub back and forth to adhere the vinyl.
Next cut a piece of transfer tape that is big enough to cover your entire vinyl design.

Remove vinyl from backing and transfer with blue painter s tape for all your projects.
I was scared to try the transfer tape with my silhouette vinyl designs and stencils but one you get the hang of it it will be your best friend.
If you re making your own files in design space or other cutting machine software you can add your own registration marks.
This model without any doubt falls into the category of the best vinyl transfer tape.
Contact paper works awesome with stencil vinyl but not so well with cricut glitter vinyl.
Transfer tape is sticky kind of like vinyl it s purpose is to move.
