Review on 🎨 Cricut 2004544 Shimmer Vinyl - Red Roll: 12X48 (4 Feet), High Quality Crafting Material by Amy Mcleod

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Use strong grip Cricut transfer tape, press firmly to attach.

Oh my god I've been trying to understand this vinyl for so long. All of the transfer tapes I tried didn't work because the shimmer vinyl was too thick and didn't transfer to the transfer tapes. It just so happens that I accidentally unwrapped the entire roll of this vinyl and pulled out the heavy grip cricket transfer tape to be used with this vinyl. Little did I know this vinyl came with its own transfer tape. For my client I used a different, not so nice, golden vinyl. I packed my package and found a transfer tape that works with this vinyl. Wow, that sucks. I was just as disappointed as other reviewers who also found this vinyl difficult to work with, but now I know it works with Cricut high-tack transfer tape. I have included photos of the high tack transfer tape I used. It really is quite a shimmery vinyl once you get it to work.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Bad instructions
