HTVRont HTV vinyl works great for t shirt project

HTVRont HTV vinyl is amazing stuff! Wishing I would have bought more! I use the Cricut Explore air and this is the best stiff I have worked with! Will be ordering more in the very near future! This worked great! I have never used HTV before and actually ordered this on the same day I ordered my Silhouette Cameo 3. The instructions are a little lacking, but with some trial and error I got this little spaceship on a shirt :) Some things to know:Cut shiny side up. The shiny side is the vinyl. The “matte” side is the plastic you’ll peel off. You’ll need to flip/mirror images and words!“Cold peel” means wait for it to cool down before you peel the plastic away.I don’t own a heat press or an iron, so I used a hair straightener to do this tiny project and it worked great! I just flipped it on and let it heat up and then did about 20 seconds of pressure. It feels securely on the shirt!My Cameo 3 cut perfectly on the glossy vinyl default settings, but I did double cut just in case.  I enjoyed the ease in using the htv. It cut easily and went on smoothly. The provided Teflon sheet worked great to protect the htv during the iron on process.

HTVRont HTV vinyl  is Super soft and easy to use! I’m new to the vinyl cutting world and couldn’t get it to cut it with my Silhouette Portrait at first. Once I increased the pressure the results were amazing. Easy to weed, sticks to the fabric well and held up well through the washer and dryer. Was very frustrated at first as I couldn't tell for sure which side was vinyl and which transfer sheet. Once I figured that out, I like it. Have not tried to wash as am working on Christmas gifts. Don,t understand the reviews that say there is no transfer sheets. If you get the right side it works like the other htv. This was my first time using HTV and this vinyl was great. Very easy to weed, stayed on perfectly and extremely great to work with. Great colors and easy to use! It cut easily and adhered to my bows very easy! The variety of colors is amazing. Like other reviewers have said there's no instructions but if you have used HTV before you'll have no problems. So far I've made a shirt and decorative canvas. The vinyl was easy to weed which is a huge plus (I hate weeding sometimes!). It also was easy to apply. I highly recommend.

I am very happy with my purchase! The colors are vivid and bright. It was my first time working with HTV and I was impressed with how easy the weeding process was. I appreciated other customer's feedback regarding which side to cut, because without specific directions provided with the product, I was a bit confused. They were spot on. This is the best heat transfer vinyl I have used ever... Shiny side up! Another person recommended that I take a paper clip and poke a small hole in the corner, which ever side it goes through is the side that faces up to be cut and that was especially helpful! I appreciated that the seller also provided the Teflon sheet to protect my material when heat pressing. The price was perfect for the product! The only thing that could be better would be if they provided instructions in the package, but it was not too hard to figure out. I will be ordering again!

This vinyl was better than my Cricut Vinyl. I loved the matte black. I used it with my new EasyPress. I made a shirt in 15 minutes. I did not have any issues with cutting, weeding, or applying the vinyl.

Transfer tape is easy to cut and peal

HTVRont clear transfer paper was as advertised and no problems! The absolute BEST transfer tape for use with my Cricut vinyl projects. I just made 20 carnival game signs in a matter of hours. No fighting with the tape to cooperate! I never leave reviews but just had to brag on this product. You will not be disappointed! This is the best transfer tape I've ever used!! Very easy to work with!!!! Best clear transfer paper ever. Works every time! I tck was perfect for my purpose and I love the clear tape with lines vs the paper backed tape. Love this tape! Very to use and burnishes so well! Love the burnishing tool you tucked in my roll! So far this item is worth the price. It’s the PERFECT transfer tape I’ve been looking for!!!! After struggling mightily with the C brand. I purchased this after reading reviews on not only Amazon, but on some Facebook craft groups as well. This is great quality transfer tape, but pricey. I wish more came on a roll for the price. It's very easy to use. This is the best Transfer Tape one could get! I make sure I sell all my decals with this Transfer Tape and no others, very easy to work with! Great product! Love the guidelines as they help to center my vinyl! I use it for vinyl transfer of items cut on my cricut maker and haven't had any problems. Works great! The product is great! I would definitely recommend.

HTVRont clear transfer paper was awesome! Love the guidelines as they help to center my vinyl! I use it for vinyl transfer of items cut on my cricut maker and haven't had any problems. Works great! Some of the BEST transfer paper I’ve ever used! Planning to buy more to stock up. Have had no issues with this transfer tape at all and if you take the time to line up your design when you first place the transfer tape, placing it on your product will be much easier. (Didn't once, won't make that mistake again! Works well. Satisfied with the product. I love this tape! I wish there was more on the roll for the money though. No problem applying to transfer, no problems removing tape after the transfer! Easy to use and I love the grid lines on it! Love it, and came with its own cute pink scraper tool! Let me start by saying I love this product. I tried a few different transfer tapes before finding this one and this will be the one I continue to buy. The search for the right one is over. I do a lot of glass etching and I've been using this to transfer the stencils. The clear transfer tape makes it 100x easier when you're trying to place a clear stencil on a glass. I also love the fact that I can use it a couple times before it looses its sticky which is nice when I'm doing a batch of 6 glasses at a time.

HTVRont transfer tape stuff works great at transferring the vinyl however the edges rolled on me and wouldn’t stick well to the backing while trying to preserve the vinyl before transferring to final product. That was a little disappointing to me! It makes a very clean line and was easy to cut and peal. The transfer tape is easy to apply and easy to remove... It is a quality product. I love this product. It is just sticky enough! It doesn't leave a residue on the the surface. I've learned to leave it on the surface for a minute in order to allow the decal to fully adhere, then it usually peels off perfectly. Really liked having the lines. Super easy for transfer! Love this stuff! I’m extremely impressed with this transfer paper. I was using the Cricut brand (bc that’s what Michael’s sells locally) and it was such a pain! It was just too sticky. Note: use this for creating stencils and painting onto wood planks. The Craftopia paper has the grid that I like, comes off easily AND I CAN REUSE IT! That is huge for me as I try to build my new business.  I love this transfer paper! The inch lines make lining up the vinyl very easy as well as easy to measure how much you need to cut. I love that it's clear so I can see exactly where I'm positioning the vinyl. It's tacky enough to be able to use it several times, but not overly tacky so that your vinyl won't come off.

Beat I have every used.. The transfer tape works great every time.. the squeege is wonderful.. great product! applies to my vinyl very easily and releases without a lot of struggle- I will definitely be purchasing this again. oh... and I love the little cloth covered applicator that came with mine.  Best transfer tape there is! Won’t peel off paint or materials you are placing it on. Nice and thick so it’s easy to work with and doesn’t catch on itself. This is great! The grid makes it so easy to line up designs for application. Adhesive is satisfactory as well.
