Overview

Paper application tape is the standard transfer medium for cut-vinyl graphics — it picks the vinyl off its release liner in alignment, allows the assembled graphic to be positioned and repositioned on the substrate, then releases cleanly after squeegeeing. RTape AT-65 is the industry workhorse: the kraft paper backing is stiff enough to hold large letter arrays flat during transfer but flexible enough to conform to gently curved substrates. Medium tack means the tape grips the vinyl face firmly without lifting edge details or silvering after the vinyl is squeegeed down. Use high-tack clear tape for low-energy vinyl surfaces, thick cast vinyls, or registration-critical layered graphic work.

Key features

  • Kraft paper carrier provides squeegeeing resistance and alignment stability for large graphic panels
  • Medium-tack (AT-65) acrylic adhesive grips vinyl face and releases cleanly after squeegee without residue
  • Will not silver, lift edge detail, or leave adhesive residue on standard PSA vinyl films
  • 100-yard roll length for high-volume shop efficiency with fewer roll changes
  • Works with cut-vinyl lettering, decals, masked paint stencils, and contour-cut graphics
  • 6", 12", and 24" widths for small lettering through wide-format panel transfer
