Why Wont My Vinyl Stick To Transfer Paper

There can be a few reasons for why your vinyl isn t sticking to the transfer tape.

Why wont my vinyl stick to transfer paper.

So i keep gently lifting it by hand but keep running into the same problem over and over. You create a decal but only some of the letters stick onto the transfer tape while the rest are left behind on the backing paper. If you re transfer tape won t pick up the vinyl off the backing sheet you re in luck. So i have my entire image on the page i place the transfer paper or contact paper on the image and then i burnished the image boy did my popsickle stick finger hurt but as i start lifting the transfer paper off the image does not want to come with it.

Glitter vinyl isn t nearly as flimsy so it won t fly around distort or stick to itself in the same way standard vinyl does. I have a little trick that will help you get that vinyl off the backing sheet when it doesn t want to seem to stick to the transfer paper. You create a decal but when you go to pick it up with the transfer tape the vinyl refuses to release from the backing paper. This means that if you have a fairly simple design that doesn t require layering or precise spacing you likely don t need to use transfer paper.

Next try applying head for a longer duration and finally if you re still not successful getting your iron on transfer to stick try turning up the heat.
