TECKWRAP Permanent Adhesive Vinyl 30.5 cm x 304.8 cm, Matte White

I had a bedside table that I painted over years ago and it was looking a bit worse for wear. Combine that with a house move and it definitely needed a revamp.I wanted something quite dark and this teal/turquoise was exactly what I was after. The pic is accurate to the colour in real lifeIt was easy to use and a nice thick vinyl that was easy to apply. It didn't have guidelines on the back, but other than that it was very simple to use!The adhesive was perfect, I just ran a heat gun over any edges and corners to seal it down properly. I wish it was a little longer on the roll though as I had to jigsaw some parts together. Overall, really pleased with how my little project turned out!

Like others have mentioned it’s definitely thicker than ordinary vinyl however when you adjust your level blade settings it’s fine you just need to do a test cut. The backing has a texture that doesn’t allow it to stick to your cutting mat (I use medium tac) which is extremely annoying, even after taping it down it still pops up. I’ve had to hold it down the whole cutting process. Unlike others I didn’t find the weeding too bad. I got this as an emergency as I ran out of my original vinyl and prime had it delivered the next day. If you’re looking for an emergency vinyl I guess this does the job but I wouldn’t purchase if you have time to buy else where. This will be going in the bin when my other vinyl arrives.

I do love the matte texture of this vinyl, it still has a subtle sheen to it; setting it apart from other brands on the market. It's a bit thicker than the glossy/metallic versions so be sure to set your machine appropriately. I find using the "Premium Vinyl" setting with the pressure set at 250 works a treat. The amount you get for the price is great value for money too. My only gripe is when using transfer tape, it doesn't seem to stick! I've tried three different brands of transfer tape and none of them seem to work easily. It takes a lot of patience and adjusting. I've resorted to taking the piece off the cutting mat, and gently pulling away the backing paper at a 180 degree angle (so it's sort of folded) and edging it away slowly from the cut so it stays on the transfer tape. Be sure to weed gently and slowly too. It's a bit more time consuming, but worth it for the end result.

I am really struggling with this vinyl, I have been using it for about a month now and it just doesn't weed easily, the Cricut is cutting through but when I come to peel away the design is not separating from the sheet and makes a lot of my projects difficult. I have other colours from techwrap which haven't had this problem, don't know if I got a bad roll but is causing a lot of headache for me at the minute.

Used this to cover some cream drawer fronts it was easy to apply and looks fab now matching g our other bedroom furniture 👍🏼
