As far as paper transfer tape. I have Main tape GXP 775 however it has the same issue of pealing at the edges without use even when you make sure to squeegee it out well. Noticed there is not a difference between high tack and low tack.. At least from what I have experienced. Seems they are the same.

Clear app tape on gloss vinyl I would use AT75. HT-55 paper app tape can be used on matte and gloss vinyls. Both stick and stay stuck to the backing.

I actually use the uscutter greenstar medium tack paper and i will just use a piece of tape on an edge to hold it...The greenstar works perfect for me..

I really like it. You can roll it as tight as you want and it won't tunnel, it doesn't bubble up over time like most clear tapes seem to do, and it can be used with wet or dry installs.

Wait....AT75 is high tack.

 

ok...is High Tack the better option to go with when using 651?

Reason I'm asking is I ran out and I don't know what I bought last. I bought the wrong roll once and the shit totally sucked. Didn't stick to anything.

 

 

I think I just answered my own question.  :|

I may be wrong but for 651, you may want medium to low tack since transfer tape sticks well to that stuff.

I had GXF-100 which is medium tack and when I would use 651, it would stick really well to the clear transfer tape. Often too well where it would pull the sticker back up.

 

But again, I am no very knowledgeable about any of this and rarely get requests or use my self, 651 or non specialty vinyl. (sadly)
