    A tip from me.
    When you weed on the mat, and have some of the mat not covered with vinyl,
    use the mat cover to cover the sticky of the mat that way your arm or shirt isn't sticking to the mat.
    Have a great day.

    I have to tell you, when you said “Make weeding less painful “ I nearly broke into tears. Seriously. I have disabilities and most everything I do is painful but last week I did two TWO, Libby glasses and I haven’t been able to use my hand for a week and it’s still extremely painful because of the weeding it took to get them done. I desperately need to learn some more tips for weeding. Thank you ❤

    Hi, an old tip trick for weeding I learned in the 90’s from a sign company was to see cut lines is to use a touch of baby powder if you have no light box or good lighting/eyes works great for darker vinyls. Or colored chalk for white vinyl . Also marking chalk for Sheetrock

    • @JenniferMaker
      @JenniferMaker  Год назад +1

      Yes! Baby powder works great! I like the colored chalk idea for white vinyl.

  • @pamwaldron3504
    @pamwaldron3504 Год назад +1

    If you don't have a light pad or desk lamp, get out your cinnamon and cornstarch or baby powder, a saucer or a small container with a lid, and a fluffy makeup brush.
    Use the cinnamon on light colors and powder or cornstarch on dark colors. Just tip out a bit onto the saucer or into the small container, dip in the brush and sweep and swirl the brush across the cut vinyl. Swish until only the cut lines show, then weed.
    Once you've weeded the vinyl, use a lint roller, a baby wipe or a microfiber cloth to wipe off the backing sheet and cutouts before applying your transfer sheet.

    Third attempt at using the Joy but very first successful attempt thanks to this video. That drawing a box around it tip came in real handy. I am sitting here with my first weeded design but only have the Stronggrip tape and don't want to destroy my fully weeded design. Now that I watched this whole video I'm going to wait and order some standard transfer tape. Thanks for your help.
