Review on 🌟 Premium Permanent Smart Vinyl Bulk Roll for Cricut Joy Vinyl, 5.5”x 120”, Adhesive Decal Sheets, Gold by Summer Hendricks

Great replacement for Cricut Smart Vinyl

I love Cricut but their materials are too expensive. Then you have to be careful with third party stuff because you never know if it's worth it. I've tried Arteza which I didn't like and Oracal which is the best I've tried and now this product. So far this product is very good. No need to use a mat, which is very convenient, and when choosing the material, be sure to choose "Smart Vinyl" as if it were Cricut material. When I printed the test material, the vinyl didn't peel off the substrate when it was cut like it does with Arteza. I didn't pre-cut the vinyl either, I simply attached the entire roll to my Cricut Joy and then cut what I needed after the cut was complete. This is a great way to save on vinyl, but you need to be sure you're loading it into your Joy correctly. The results were pretty good. This vinyl weeds well with no issues, but like the Cricut Smart Vinyl, it was a little difficult to attach to my branded transfer tape. I had to polish it over and over again until it stuck - which Cricut Smart Vinyl never did (I could never get Cricut Smart Vinyl to stick to transfer tape). I've washed my water bottle a few times. I poured cold water in to make it sweat on the outside and the vinyl wouldn't come up. I would say this is a worthy replacement for Cricut vinyl.

Pros
  • Weather and fade resistant. Water and UV resistant permanent vinyl allows for both small creations and large outdoor projects.
Cons
  • weak
