The Cricut Minute #28 Today’s topic is about weeding iron-on vinyl.
Do you ever end up digging a hole into it while trying to pull up part that you’re weeding?
Does the whole piece buckle, causing a wrinkle in the actual iron-on?
Here are TWO things you can try!
1- Put the HTV on a slightly softer surface, like your EasyPress Mat. This creates a bit of give and can help the hook grab the vinyl easier than a very hard table surface.
Here’s a short Instagram reel you can watch.
2- Leave the cut HTV on the sticky mat while you weed. The carrier sheet will stay stuck to the mat and the vinyl will pull away easier.
Let me know if you try these and it helps, or if you have other tricks for weeding iron on vinyl!
Today’s Tip: Weeding HTV
- Try weeding on a softer surface, like the EasyPress mat
