In this video Jessica shows you some tips and tricks on how to master using transfer tape.
In the first example, she uses a 12x12 sheet of transfer tape. We all have a variety of different rolls available as well. We recommend trying out each to see which one works best for you.
In the second example, Jessica takes a roll of transfer tape and sticks her project on the adhesive backing. This is a great method that works great as well.
The last example demonstrates how to use transfer tape on a large project. If you’re interested in looking at our transfer tape, check out our website! goo.gl/yRafGi

Thanks for posting this using papers transfer tape. I accidentally ordered a roll of paper tape instead of the clear plastic tape and didn't think I could use the paper tape therefore wasting a bunch of money. Now I know I can still use it!!.

Can I use transfer tape on HTV after the HTV's been cut? I'm trying to finish a St. Patrick's T-shirt and want to layer shamrocks on top of a tie that's already ironed on the shirt. I can't see the tie when I place the shamrocks on the shirt to line this up properly so I thought I could use clear transfer tape for this. Is this possible or is there another method I can use? I hope this makes sense. BTW I love your tutorials. They are so helpful and easy to understand. thanks

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi, you wouldn't actually want to use transfer tape because it has a different type of adhesive and it wasn't designed for the heat. If you have done any other heat transfer and still have the clear plastic sheet that you peeled off, it would work great.

@stitchywitch6535 6 лет назад

Wow you are quick!!! This is my very first project and I didn't keep the clear plastic sheet (I ironed on the tie several days ago). Could I cut around the 2nd layer (Shamrocks) a little closer so some of the 1st layer is exposed underneath so I can try to position the design better or will that hurt the first layer? thanks Jan

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

No, that would work as well. However, once you have it positioned you will want to put a heat transfer cover sheet, multi use paper or something like that over the top because you do not want the exposed heat transfer that you already ironed on to have direct contact with the iron or heat press that you are using.

@stitchywitch6535 6 лет назад

I figured out what I did. I missed a step. I didn't peal the excess vinyl from the around the shamrocks. Once I did that I could easily see to position them on top of the tie. I couldn't figure out why all of the tutorials I viewed showed the designs on clear sheets and mine didn't look like that... Geez....live and learn. I won't forget that again. LOL Thanks for your help.

The sheet that has the word "Hello" is the vinyl. It is an adhesive vinyl used on hard surfaces. The white sheet and roll is the transfer tape. The transfer tape is used to transfer the entire image in one piece to the surface you are wanting to apply it to. The adhesive vinyl isn't suitable for clothing. For clothing, you will want a heat transfer vinyl. The heat transfer vinyl we carry doesn't require a transfer tape since it already has a carrier sheet attached.

Hi Marcia, it would depend on where you were putting it. Typically if it is going indoor then we recommend the removable vinyl. Here is a link to that - expressionsvinyl.com/removable-adhesive-vinyl/. As far as putting it on the surface, again that is hard to say. Just help them understand that the surface is clean and they start from one edge and move across to avoid bubbles. You may want to use a clear transfer tape for that if you are going to have someone else place it on. Here is the link to our clear transfer tapes - expressionsvinyl.com/transfer-tape/clear/. Hopefully this helps.

Please pardon my ignorance...but what is the purpose of using transfer tape? Couldn't you just use a sticky-back vinyl to cut your design?

Any info would be greatly appreciated! Your vids are great!

@Expressionsvinyls 7 лет назад

Andrea, The transfer tape transfers your vinyl onto your project. If you have a solid image you do not need transfer tape. If you have a word or intricate image the transfer tape keeps the spacing of your image or letters so you dont have to place them one by one.

Hi Kiara, thank you for contacting us. What type of vinyl are you using with it? Also, what are you applying it to? Please let us know by sending an email to support@expressionsvinyl.com so we can figure out what is happening. We want you to be able to use it. Let us know if you have any additional questions.

I can’t get the cricut transfer vinyl off vinyl letters? I have used the scraper on the front and back and it will not come off the transfer tape any ideas on how to get it on my basket ? I have cleaned with rubbing alcohol too

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi Terri, it sounds like the Cricut Transfer tape is a little tackier than normal and holding tighter to your vinyl. We have seen people place it on a towel or jeans to make it not as tacky prior to applying it to your vinyl. With it being not as tacky, it will release from your vinyl. If in the future you'd like to try the paper transfer tape, we have found a lot of success with it. expressionsvinyl.com/transfer-tape/paper/

Hi, they are self healing mats that you can get at your local fabric or craft store. We purchased these off of Amazon.

Question on using the transfer tape, I used it over my vinyl and rude on top of the transfer tape. But the vinyl will not ahire to the transfer tape. What can you do? It is driving me crazy.

@Expressionsvinyls 4 года назад

Hello, Theresa. You may want to check your cut settings. If you can see indentations on the backing of the vinyl from the cuts, sometimes the vinyl will bevel into the backing causing the vinyl to grip to the backing. Another thing you can try is turning the decal over an burnishing it from the backside of the decal.

@petee716 4 года назад

Thanks for a straightforward demonstration. Folks have lots of problems with vinyl not peeling off the backer sheet. As you mentioned, cutting is probably too deep. Just enough cut pressure to effectively weed is all that's necessary. Cutting into the paper also dulls your blade (Did you ever get caught using your mom's sewing scissors for paper? Lol.) Adhesive vinyl also has a shelf life so old stuff my not perform well. Buying application tape that doesn't have enough tack is not helpful. Even with stronger tack application tape, once the decal has been applied and squeegeed, spray the entire surface of the tape with water or else use a sponge, wait 30 seconds (no longer) for the water to penetrate the tape, and then carefully peel off the application tape by pulling it backwards, not upwards.

I have experience making it much more complicated with the large vinyls. Painfully so. This makes it much more possible to transfer those large pieces.

Can you tell why my backing paper always sticks to my vinyl? What am I doing wrong?

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi Julie, there could be several things. Make sure that you are not cutting too deep. Even if you are not cutting all the way through the backing paper, if you are cutting it a little bit it will hold on to some of the cut sections making it difficult to release. Please let us know how else it is sticking and if it is the transfer paper or the backing paper. We' want to make sure you are able to use it correctly.

I bought this transfer tape off your website and I have had no luck getting my vinyl to stick to it. :( I've tried burnishing both sides and even that has not helped. I am using the vinyl I bought off your website as well, so it's not another brand of vinyl. Any tips? I am so frustrated and feel like giving up. :(

That is no good! We'll help you get this figured out. What type of transfer tape did you buy and what type of vinyl are you using? Also what are you putting the vinyl on?

I am using cricut transfer tape and i cannot get it to stick to the vinyl , [ i am using outdoor vinyl ] ....and it won't transfer when i go to apply it , i basically have to weed it to get it to stick to the transfer paper.

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi, we'd recommend that you try a different transfer tape. sometimes different transfer tape will work a little different and release the vinyl better. Hopefully this helps. expressionsvinyl.com/transfer-tape/

@lupegarcia8778 6 лет назад

I have the cricut maker just bought very overwhelming how can I make a stencil with the letters coming out the way I printed it for my canvas.

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi Lupe, congrats on a new machine. When making a stencil you would just need to weed the letters out instead of the excess vinyl. Normally when you cut a phrase, etc you pull the excess vinyl away just leaving the letters. Stencils are opposite that. You pull the letters away and are left with everything else. Hopefully that makes sense.

@lupegarcia8778 6 лет назад

Expressions Vinyl thanks a bunch I did that but I also see some people use card stock or paper so how would I keep the centers in

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi Lupe, there are specific fonts and images that can be used and were created specifically for stenciling. They have a small line connecting down through it so the letters will not come apart.

@Jea9nalepa 7 лет назад

I'm going to look for a video on the different types of Transfer Tape. I see you have used Clear in on video and this masking type in this video. I think it is because of different vinyl 651 vs. 631.

Thanks for the tips. Do you have any tips to offer for getting transfer tape onto a massively large wall decal (in pieces)... I only have transfer tape that’s on a roll, but has the backing. I noticed yours does not. I’ll be ordering yours next time, but want to use up what I have. Thanks in advance for your help. I think I bit off more than I can chew with this project😳

@Expressionsvinyls 6 лет назад

Hi Jennifer, it sounds like you have a big project ahead of you. We have done it before with larger pieces like that. The best and easiest way we have found is overlapping the transfer tape a little bit. That will stabilize it while you place it on the wall as well as allow you to apply the transfer tape in pieces. Hopefully that helps a little bit.

@jenniferconnell7232 6 лет назад

Thank you! I did it😀 It was a labor of love, and it looks great. I appreciate your helpful tips.
