Below are pictures that show how quick and simple the Vinyl Mate is
to use.
A few things you will need:
1. Spray a smooth piece of material with reposition adhesive. This will hold down the vinyl while its being cut. The size of material depends on what size of vinyl you are using and can be reused every time you cut vinyl.
2. Position vinyl, then squeegee .
3. Install the Vinyl Mate in the routers collet then run the part file that you designed to cut the vinyl. ( In this e.g.. We will cut out a sign, Vinyl Mate)
4. Weed out the vinyl leaving the design you are going to use.
5. Apply transfer tape to the remaining vinyl and squeegee.
6. Lift up on the transfer tape bringing the vinyl with it, then apply it to your sign blank.
7.Squeegee it down and remove the transfer tape, then squeegee again. On larger letters or very smooth surfaces ( glass) you may need to use an application fluid or a ( water spray bottle with a few drops dishwashing soap) before you apply the vinyl, this makes it easier to position the vinyl and get rid of any air bubbles.
