Review on 🎨 Oracal 651-12" x 10yd - Black Gloss 070: Durable Vinyl Solution for Crafters, Architects, and DIY Enthusiasts by Summer Hendricks

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Had problems

I started making decals for my business and there is something wrong with this vinyl. I usually don't have time to weed when I'm buying a 651. This was the first time I bought a roll. I usually buy precut 12" squares and have never had a grip problem when weeding. This role was terrible. It's as if the vinyl's stickiness at the base isn't enough. Every time I pulled out the negative, it pulled out my working parts. I made some 12 inch squares and I'll line them up and see if that helps. I know I've had a lot of problems with vinyl wrap that's too tight. Tight rolling creates shear stress between the base and the vinyl. Some of you may have had that and the vinyl really does curl. In any case, if the vinyl tears from over-twisting, it will destroy the original factory bond. I think that's what this role is about.

Pros
  • Easy to handle 3 mil (76 micron) calendered film with permanent solvent based adhesive
Cons
  • Older model
