I am an ebay seller and also do local work for some friends, but I've been in the vinyl business for years! My vinyl of choice is Oracal 651, due to it's decent lifespan and great price. I've been experiencing some issues lately with the backing sticking terribly bad and ripping (sticking to the vinyl). I ship ALL of my orders from ebay and my customer's are having some true difficulties trying to get the backing off. This problem just caused me to get a NEGative feedback on Ebay (tarnishing my perfect 100% score) and I had to refund $100+ even though I cut, packed and shipped the decals to the customer next day. I know other people are having this problem and I just want to know what to do. I'm seriously thinking about just giving ebay up, because I can't ship everything twice and still get negative feedback and having to refund money. It's killing me time and money wise.... **I live in a humid area, with lots of heat** **The problem has only come to fruition within the past month or so (May-June)** **I also re-calibrated the height and cutting pressure on my (USCutter SC25) so that the backing isn't cut at all** Has anyone else had these problems? IF so, with what vinyls/tapes, etc. and how the heck do I prevent it and help my customers with installation when they are trying to install in a humid environment, with little to no vinyl application skills??? All help/comments are appreciated and desperately needed!!!
