Tape question

[bayviewsignworks]

What does everyone use as far as tape? We use PerfecTear main tape and it tends to curl a lot. We don't control the humidity so that could be a factor but is there "good stuff" and "not so good stuff'?

We had the same problems and switched to RTape Conform 4075-RLA. We have been very pleased. You can also cut the transfer tape about 1/2" long on the ends and fold under. This helps from lifting on the edges,

Transfer-rite.

4075-RLA here as well. Tried several brands over the years and couldn't be happier with thi one.

Thanks guys, we'll order a roll and see how it goes. Also, I didn't say before but on digital graphics when we roll up after taping it tends to buckle or wave and make it hard to apply. Is there a better tape for inkjet digital vinyl w/lam (Oracal 3551 RA and Oracal lam)?

3M SCPM-3. I like that it doesn't curl and comes off the core easy. it also is good all the way to the core. I used to use Transfer-rite but found that it near impossible to use all the way to the core. they may have fixed that over the years but it was a big issue when I used it. I was pulling really hard and it ripped and I punched myself in the mouth, that was my last Transfer-rite bought.

Conform AT-60 Clear RLA... switched to this last month... I'll never go back! Little pricier, but well worth the extra few $$$.

 

[bayviewsignworks]

Clear, for dig vinyl or Both? We mainly just use clear for registering vinyl etc.??

Is $60 a good price for a roll of 30" wide RTape Conform 4075-RLA?
