Clare 0 Posted August 27, 2020 Hi I'm new to using Vinyl and I was hoping that someone could give me some advise on the best transfer tape to use with Oracal 651. Would the best tape be the Orafol with a medium tack adhesive or would another transfer tape be better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 27, 2020 It depends on what you use it for. Most professionals use paper transfer tape. So that you can install wet or dry. I use medium tack myself. Never used Orafol . I use Main transfer tape. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare 0 Posted August 27, 2020 Thanks for reply MZ SKEETER I'm really just using it to make small decals. I will have a look at Main transfer tape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 27, 2020 Transfer tape (app tape) is a disposable item, and depending on what you expect from it, pretty much any stuff will be OK. I have been using 'house brand' tapes for years and it suffices. A decent tape I've used is called LayFlat from USCUTTER. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
