Transfer Tape Instructions

  1. Make sure project surface is clean and dry. Use rubbing alcohol to clean plastic and glass surfaces.
  2. Peel vinyl liner away from Transfer Tape and design.
    • If your vinyl doesn't separate from the liner, simply burnish liner back onto the vinyl and peel away again.
  3. Attach a small area of design onto your surface. This can either be the center or one end of your design.
  4. Use a Scraper to burnish design onto your surface, working outward from where you attached the small area.
  5. Peel Transfer Tape away from design.
    • Work carefully. If design peels up with Transfer Tape, simply burnish Transfer Tape and vinyl back down to the project surface and peel away again.
    • For best results, peel Transfer Tape at an acute angle.

The Difference between Decals and Stickers

Decals and stickers may seem similar, but there are key differences between the two. What is a decal? A decal is a design printed or illustrated on vinyl material that can be transferred onto a smooth surface. They are often used for long-term applications. Vinyl stickers, on the other hand, are made from a vinyl cut or screen printed onto a vinyl material with a permanent adhesive.

Stickers are commonly used for short-term or mass production purposes. So, whether you’re looking for custom decals or vinyl stickers, understanding the distinction will help you make the right choice for your needs.
