@@ColorChangeCustoms Quick question! Do the transfer tapes you recommend (medium tack) work with the silver gloss vinyl? I've been searching on Amazon for the past 30 minutes and I can't decide which one to get
@@ikendoitdotstudio I typically use the Frisco Craft transfer tape for most things. It's been pretty consistent. The medium tack one I will use if I'm applying decals to a surface with a weaker surface energy (like a painted wall) so that the transfer tape doesn't pull the vinyl with it (or as much) when you are peeling it off after applying the decal.
I’m having an issue when weeding.. some of the small cuts that are supposed to be staying.. I can’t get them to stick and half the sticker comes off with the “weeds”
I'm not sure, as I've never done that. My best guess is, depending on the material for the gasket, you might be able to use Silhouette's Deep Cut blade (amzn.to/41DSrUi). I don't think it would work with cutting metal, so the gasket medium would need to be the paper type I think. Again, I've never done automotive or deep cut work with the Cameo, so I'm not entirely sure.
I literally just started today and can't figure out your step one! You already start with an image on your screen. Where did you get it? How did it get on your screen? Did you have to buy it? Where do you save it to?
Thanks for the feedback...fair point in that I just started with an image already. Basically, I get my images from the internet, though you certainly can buy images as well from a variety of sites. Just make sure you're not using protected images (copyrighted, trade marked, service mark, etc), especially if it's to make things to sell. Typically, when I find an image I like on the internet, I right click the image and "save image as", if that option is available. Sometimes, websites post images in a format you can't easily save.
Thank you! I've not used the chrome from vvivid that long actually, and I've used it just on stuff that has remained inside (laptop and toolbox) so I'm not sure how it would fare as a window decal. Vvivid's manufacture claims would indicate it would fare just as well as any other though.
The other thing I like about your channel is that you are using silhouette. There is an overabundance of cricut stuff on RUclips. I hate having to go through all that design space time that they put into those videos because it does not apply to me and my silhouette. I like seeing silhouette users on here doing their thing.
Everything was going good until we got to the “right click then compound...” nothing is letting me right click and having that box appear. I’ve tried everything. Can you go over that again but slowly?? Aiming the camera exactly where it is that is to be highlighted etc. thanks
Hi, thanks for watching. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by peeling off the vinyl and the letters fall off. Are you referring to when you apply the decal (with transfer tape) and peeling off the transfer tape after applying?
Thank you guys for the feedback! I do intend to do an updated video in the near future. I did recently publish this video though (ruclips.net/video/pMO8ZDMm98k/видео.html) that might partially address what you noted.
just brilliant, love the way you explain everything, slowly & no rushing thank you
Sure thing! Thank you and thanks for watching, I'm glad it was helpful.

Great video.. do you have anything on doing multi layer decals?
Thanks and thanks for watching! Unfortunately, no, I don't have a video made yet on multilayering decals, but it's definitely on the list to make!
@@ColorChangeCustomsI’m totally impressed by your dedication to answering our comments even years after your posted videos.
Do you need to print the design backwards like when using heat transfer?
No, for regular decals, you would print/cut regularly.
I’m having an issue when weeding.. some of the small cuts that are supposed to be staying.. I can’t get them to stick and half the sticker comes off with the “weeds”
This IS the way
This is the way
Appreciate the video and sharing the links to the materials! 🔥
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
@@ColorChangeCustoms Question, any reason to use the ratchet blade over the autoblade?
@@ScopewithPurpose no, not really. I just used it just cuz lol. Auto blade would be just fine as well.
@Color Change Customs I appreciate the comment, wish you well with your business! ✊️
I know you can use these cutters for making automotive gaskets... any chance you could do a how to?
I'm not sure, as I've never done that. My best guess is, depending on the material for the gasket, you might be able to use Silhouette's Deep Cut blade (amzn.to/41DSrUi).

dont you have to choose cuttingmat to in the settings or else the thickness is to much?
Hi, thanks for watching. Yes, if you are using a cutting mat, definitely ensure that option is on.
Love your videos. Have you used this chrome from vvivid long? Last over a year on a window decal?
Thank you! I've not used the chrome from vvivid that long actually, and I've used it just on stuff that has remained inside (laptop and toolbox) so I'm not sure how it would fare as a window decal. Vvivid's manufacture claims would indicate it would fare just as well as any other though.

I completely agree with you!! I'm soooooo glad to see things done with a Silhouette!
I agree also plus he takes the time to explain each step clearly
OBRIGADA, AMEI!!!!
Whats thw difference between auto blade and Ratchet blade? Thanks in Advance
The ratchet blade you manually set the depth of the blade whereas the auto blade the machine will set the depth of the blade for you.
What vinyl is this please? Is it for stickers or normal vinyl?
Ok I already found the answer in the comments, thanks, loved the video
Sorry for the late reply. Thanks and thanks for watching! I used a few different craft vinyls, listed in the description, mostly Oracal and Vvivid.
Do you have a link for the ratchet blade?
Sorry for the late reply. HYG! amzn.to/3jQE8JY
Do you use Orcal651 ?
Typically yes, but I also use other brands and even automotive vinyl for decals in some cases
Everything was going good until we got to the “right click then compound...” nothing is letting me right click and having that box appear. I’ve tried everything. Can you go over that again but slowly?? Aiming the camera exactly where it is that is to be highlighted etc. thanks
If the right click doesn't work, in the menu bar, one of the drop down menus has "make compound path"
@@ColorChangeCustoms the compound path is grayed out and unavailable 😞
Might have to upgrade software….😢
What program was that
I was using silhouette design studio, which is the program for the silhouette cameo.
@@ColorChangeCustoms thanx ☺️😊
how come it looks so easy you just peel off the vinyl and the letters fall off there nothing happens to me
Hi, thanks for watching. I'm not sure I understand what you mean by peeling off the vinyl and the letters fall off. Are you referring to when you apply the decal (with transfer tape) and peeling off the transfer tape after applying?
Where can ya get the machine from
In the description area, I posted an affiliate link where you can get the silhouette cameo from Amazon.
Everybody skips the putting the decal on the transfer paper and putting the wax paper back on. To me that's the hardest part. Still searching...
I agree. This was a great video but could be improved by incorporating the steps you recommended.
