Cricut-Vinyl-Transfer Tape Help

[hpcurling]

Is there someone out there who could give me some step by step directions on how you have successfully used the Transfer Tape by Provo Craft? I cut out vinyl letters with the Cricut and wanted to line them up using the Transfer Tape. I thought I followed the directions provided but I could not get the letters to release from the gridded liner. Maybe someone can help Thanks hpcurling

Has anyone used Transfer Tape for applying Vinyl???? I purchased this because I saw a blog or tutorial using it, can't find it now. If you can help... Thanks hpcurling

Not sure I can help--I've only used it once. What I did was cut my letters (for on glass blocks), and pulled out part I didn't want to use off the mat. Then I put the transfer tape on top of the part I wanted to transfer, and rubbed it on well, and then carefully peeled them up. They stayed on the transfer tape, and the backing of the vinyl stayed on my mat.

Hope this gives you some help. There's an instruction sheet in with both the vinyl and with the liner. Not sure if the instruction sheets are the same, but you might find more info there. Or possibly a video on YouTube?

I don't know if this would help you, but I found these step by step instructions today:

Here are instructions with the transfer tape.

Vinyl Instructions using Transfer Tape Cutting Vinyl with the Cricut Die Cutting System
1) Place vinyl sheet on Cricut cutting mat. Load mat into machine and confirm that machine is set to the correct cutting mat
size.
2) Make cutting selection and set size as if you where cutting paper, and then press cut. Peel images off cutting mat.
PREPARATION
1) Place vinyl sheet on Cricut cutting mat. Load mat into machine and confirm that machine is set to the correct cutting mat
size.
2) Make cutting selection and set size. For best results, set blade depth to 6 and pressure to 2.
These settings will result in a "KISS CUT" or a cut that only goes through the vinyl leaving the backing liner uncut.
3) Take ends of transfer tape in each hand with adhesive side facing down. Gently lay transfer tape over vinyl (be sure to
lay it straight) image starting in the center and moving out toward the ends.
4) Once tape is in place, use applicator stick to burnish*the tape on to the vinyl. Start in the center and use overlapping
strokes.
APPLICATION
1) Completely clean and dry wall (or other surface) area where vinyl image is to be placed. For best results do not use a
cleaner that will leave a residue.
2) Lightly place image on wall using level to ensure correct placement.
3) Once image is in place, use applicator stick to burnish* vinyl on to wall. For best results use overlapping strokes when
burnishing*
4) Gently peel back transfer tape at 45-degree angle. If vinyl starts to come off with transfer tape, lay area back down and
burnish* again.
