Review on πŸ”† Avery Clear Laminating Sheets, 9x12, Permanent Self-Adhesive, Pack of 50 Sheets (73601) by Eduardo Reyes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Surprisingly bad product - paper does not peel off the sheet!

I've tried this on several sheets and attached photos of the ends of one sheet: As you can see the edge of the sheet that says "OPEN HERE" doesn't come off cleanly at all! Maybe because the sheets are dry? (See note below for two other brands that come with sheets in plastic bags.) I tested Avery with several sheets and got the same result. I have tried single sided sheets from Scotch and Everest and each product has a sheet pack. are supplied in a separate, sealed cellophane bag inside a carton. But not Avery. I'm so surprised by Avery since this name is usually the reference for labels and other companies. Waste of $12 to buy this product but then I tested which brand is better. Speaking of which - and for those of you who need a single sided laminate film, here are some testimonials: EVEREST is the better of the two compared to SCOTCH. Everest 3M panels peel off easily and smooth out more easily with fewer bubbles or wrinkles. I can even lift the corner and change the sheet position. You can't do that with scotch. SCOTCH 6 mil. sheets peel off easily but are much harder to control for blisters, creases, etc. And once that sticky sheet comes in contact with your surface (I have Canon's photo quality color printer paper), is it GAMPS and you can't move or loosen it's a back fix. I tried it once and the glossy paper came off! If you need a tight laminate, then 6 mil tape. there would be a choice though if you can live with thinner 3 mil. Leaf, then I see that Everest is much better. As for Avery, I think Live and Learn. Don't try to come back; I only eat $12 and think I'm a little smarter. Don't try to come back; I only eat $12 and think I'm a little smarter. Don't try to come back; I only eat $12 and think I'm a little smarter.
