    I want to know what the highest-quality knifeless tape is for vinyl.

    I went through three rolls of wrap cut over the past year. It's good for what it is.
    Cuts nice clean lines but it doesn't do curves very well.

    I need a good knifeless tape that cuts curves, with a strong string or wire.

    I just recently cut this decal. The top part was plotter cut.
    The bottom, I used knifeless tape to keep it tight, and run along the existing paint job.

    I searched on Amazon but didn't like what I saw after reading the reviews.
    I love good KNIFLESS tape.

    We use the 3M Design Line knifeless. The adhesion is perfect imo. Bends/curves are good, but the only complaint is the filament breaking easily at times.

    Use 3M here too. Use the Finish line and Design line to get what we need. Mainly cutting through laminated 180c and 1080 wrap films.
    No real issues.

    We used to use the original knife-less tape brand that was then bought by 3M but found that it left kind of a rough edge on thicker materials or stretchier laminantes. We were given a roll of "Wrap-Cut" to try. It cut really great. The filament is actually wire and It's all we use now. There are 2 other types as well but can't remember what they are. We got it through Amazon btw.
