Vinyl Wont Stick To Yeti

No i don t clear coat the vinyl.

Vinyl wont stick to yeti.

I m realizing now that. I may have to try out a pos decal to test it. I ve put decals on the sides of my yeti but i m wondering how a decal would stick on the rough textured surface of the lid. The water tank manufacturer is rotoplas and its a polyethylene material which im starting to find out has a non stick agent in it to help prevent.

Customer has a pressure washing business and wanted his water tank lettered up. Sometimes i ll run a hot gun or hair dryer over it as the heat makes the vinyl stick a bit better. I found a really cool patterned matte vinyl by the paper studio sold by hobby lobby and made a decal to place on another yeti cup however the vinyl will not stick. Long story short oracal 651 will not stick to it and oracal 3651 is barely hanging on thats whats in the pic.

Whether you re working with stickers that stick to plastic pretty well or those that just slide right off you can use decoupage glue to put those stickers permanently in place. You want a few of the fibers to stick to the tape to make it less sticky for your vinyl. Usually you have to scrape pretty hard to get the vinyl off unless it s a really thin piece. Another way to help this is to de stick your tape.

Has anyone tried it. I hear conflicting ideas on that. I ve created a couple decals for powder coated yeti cups using oracle 651 glossy vinyl and applied with no problems. Some great places to de stick your tape are jeans denim blankets or anything slightly fuzzy.

You can do this by sticking your tape on multiple surfaces before you pick up your vinyl. Most people say the vinyl needs room to breathe so it s not good to coat it.
