Quick Tip: Always Test Vinyl Before the Final Cut
Before cutting into your full sheet of vinyl, take a minute to run a small test cut using the same vinyl, blade, and settings. Even if you’ve used that brand before, don’t skip this step.
For vinyl projects, cut a tiny shape—like a star or your smallest text—to check blade depth and pressure. Then weed it. If it weeds too easily, your cut may be too deep. If corners pull or tear, adjust your settings before committing to the full design.
Vinyl thickness, adhesive strength, temperature, and blade wear all affect results. A 30-second test cut can save an entire sheet of vinyl and a lot of frustration.
Make test cuts part of your routine, and your vinyl projects will look cleaner, sharper, and more professional every time.
