Review on πŸ–€ ORACAL 651 Matte Black Permanent Vinyl - 1 Pack: Premium Quality for Long-lasting Results by Amber Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great price but came twisted HERE causing a lot of twisting

Would MIGHT buy again. I'm trying to write a detailed review consistent with my star ratings. First, let me say that I usually use Oracle brand vinyl. Cutting mat because it kept curling up. For this reason, a star deduction for the user-friendliness. Even after weeding my project, it still curled up making it difficult to apply the transfer tape as well (see last picture). Pictures 1-3 show that the barcode sticker was applied directly to the black vinyl ONLY vinyl. I don't know why, the white people didn't have it. When trying to remove the sticker it peeled off and ripped open in layers leaving a sticky residue. I just cropped that section - wasted material but glad it was a small part. This, along with the tight coiling and curling, caused me to drop the overall star. On the plus side, both the matte white and matte black were exactly what I needed and expected. I didn't expect my white roll to come with transfer tape (see fig 4). I assume that was a rehearsal? It wasn't enough to cover one roll, let alone two rolls. Not sure if it only comes with white because the black reel didn't have it. I've never heard of this particular transmission band, VVivid XPO Intermediate Cal (see Figure 5). But i love it! He took the vinyl with no problem and to be honest I had a problem with the Oracle transfer tape for some reason. It easily peeled off the decal I created for the car window without leaving any marks or problems. I used the same piece for three different layers and it worked fantastic! I would definitely buy this brand of clear transfer tape - you can see in one of the pictures it also has the big blue grids which I like. All in all, I've added the VVivid transfer tape to my shopping cart. Not entirely sure how I feel about reordering this particular Oracle vinyl from this seller, just the hassle with the curling and the barcode sticker. Maybe you'll give him another chance to think about it.
