Review on ARHIKY Red Heat Transfer Vinyl HTV Roll for T-Shirts - 12" x 15' by Jose Moran

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Use this only if you know what you are doing.

I was excited to read good reviews and try this value roll of vinyl. I got it, read the directions and went to cutting. YOU MUST FOLLOW THE EXACT INSTRUCTIONS or you are going to mess it up. YOU MUST HAVE A NEW BLADE IN YOUR CUTTER, because tweaking the instructions will TICK YOU OFF! I thought maybe I got a bad batch or something, but nope. I emailed the company and told me there is nothing wrong with their product that I needed to follow the instructions. Uhhh, ok?The vinyl is finicky. So, if you are cutting something that is big and bold with less detail, then this is the perfect vinyl for you. However, if you are cutting detail beware. You must cut on the slowest speed or you can forget it. Weeding is very easy. So easy that you will weed EVERYTHING OFF no matter how well you cut it. There is not much adhesive on the carrier tape. Once it comes lose there is no sticking it back. It almost reminds me a Stahls Fashion Film. There is no room for mistakes. LAST TWO POINTS: It is not the easiest to tell which side you should cut on. However once the lightbulb comes on that part is a breeze. Secondly, this product is not as smooth on the garments when finished. It's ok, but it doesn't seem to WELD with the garment, but you CANNOT press it extra or it will shrivel and you're done for. SO RECAP - This product great for easy cut projects without too much detail. USE on tedious projects at your own risk.
