Step 2. Use transfer tape to pull your design off the backing. First, you lay the transfer tape onto the weeded vinyl (I started with the words that I cut in black Oracal 651) and use your scraper to get the transfer tape to stick to the vinyl. Second, peel up the transfer tape and the vinyl should come off the backing.
I had a few spots that would not come off the backing, so I use my weeding tool to carefully release the vinyl from the backing and just keep going.
For transfer tape, I used clear Contact Paper. I bought a roll for $5 from Big Lots (and have been using the same roll for over a year now), but sometimes the dollar store has clear Contact Paper too. I love using Contact Paper as I can reuse it many times. If it’s a new piece of Contact Paper, sometimes it’s too sticky, so I recommend sticking it to your pants or a shirt a few times to make it a little less sticky.
