Gwybkq Glossy Sticker Paper Printable Vinyl

I'm going to write the review I wish I'd had when buying this paper -- because then I wouldn't have had to buy and test every one of them! For reference: I'm using a Canon ix6820 and a Silhouette Cameo 4 (similar to a Cricut). I bought every type of printable sticker paper that this company has, and tested them all. I made kiss cut settings (like a sticker sheet). Here are my results. (Please note that I only tested the Matte for waterproof quality.) TRANSLUCENT Yes, it's a little squeaky, but it's beautiful. I definitely prefer this over the Clear paper. It's my choice for see-through sticker paper from this brand. I did notice that when you peel the sticker off, it doesn't look too great -- until it's placed on paper again. Then it's beautiful! GLOSSY My personal favorite. It printed beautifully, and has a finish that I love. Only complaints are these: the more intricate stickers can be a bit delicate, and also my Cameo's blade does get a little stuck if I set too many passes for the machine. But I think that's just the nature of glossy paper. (Bonus: I tested a few pens on labels made from this paper, and it didn't smear or scratch the sticker. What a win!) MATTE Not terrible, but not my favorite. Maybe I'm doing something wrong on my end, but sending this paper through my Cameo was somewhat frustrating. The cuts weren't very accurate, and when I peeled off the stickers, they tore more than once. The color is very vibrant, and when I ran some stickers under some water they didn't bleed at all. Unfortunately, they're just not sturdy enough for my taste. CLEAR Last one! And sadly the one I like the least. I thought this sticker paper would be my favorite -- it feels nice and smooth to the touch, and isn't squeaky at all. Unfortunately, the ink smears a lot. I let this one dry for 15+ minutes before I picked it up (which I don't usually do, I was just busy) but after the Cameo was done cutting, and I transferred them to the paper that you see above, I had ink on my fingers. If you look closely at the second picture, you can see they have an odd textured look -- that's actually my fingerprints. Overall, I don't hate any of these. They all feel like good quality sticker paper (and I actually prefer them to the pricier OL brand). TL;DR: My personal favorites are Glossy and Translucent. SILHOUETTE SETTINGS On the off-chance another Silhouette user has made it this far into this novel of a review, I'm going to include my cut settings for the Glossy and Translucent papers! GLOSSY (kiss cut): Force 8, Speed 4, Passes 1, Acceleration 1, Blade Depth 3 GLOSSY (full cut): Force 28, Speed 5, Passes 2, Acceleration 1, Blade Depth 3 TRANSLUCENT (kiss cut): Force 18, Speed 4, Passes 1, Acceleration 1, Blade Depth 3 TRANSLUCENT (full cut): Force 28, Speed 5, Passes 2, Acceleration 1, Blade Depth 3

I ordered this paper for my wife a couple of times before, for her Etsy stationery shop. She makes sticker sheets with it. She wanted me to write this review because she said it would help a lot, people who suffered like her with curling papers. So here it is! Short review: vivid colors, smooth surface, easy feeding to the printer, and the paper doesn't curl after printing on it! Overall, recommended product! Now a longer review with a little background: The quality of this paper was good before, with vibrant colors and smooth surface when I bought it the first time. The only issue she had was that the paper was curling even before printing. She thought it was because the back paper was too thick. Because of that, she went on to try other papers. After trying multiple brands with the same curling problem, she wanted to go back to this one. For her surprise, the vinyl is not curling anymore and the back paper seems a bit thinner. Not really sure what changed and fixed the problem. The important thing is: no more suffering feeding the paper to the printer! Also, the print quality is still great, so it's a win, win! She's happy with it! It is recommended in the package to keep the paper in the box, and only take out what you'll use to prevent the paper deformation. Now, she only uses this for planner stickers which don't need to be waterproof. So not sure how well it would behave with water. The best practice is to laminate if you want it water resistant. See example of how it used to curl before, sheet on the left. And how it is now, sheet on the right.

This paper printed perfectly. I waited the suggested five minutes before using my cricket machine to cut it. I used the sticker paper setting and it cut through perfectly. I used it to create labels for essential oil bottles. They look beautiful, very professional-looking.

Love the paper had buy it like 4 times

I used this paper in my small business for several months, and overall it's great sticker paper. Prints easily & looks great, as long as you only load one sheet at a time. Adhesion is great most of the time, more on that later. Definitely needs to be laminated or sealed (but I find that's how all printable sticker papers are). The option to buy a larger amount was awesome. Also there is no branding or grid on backside, which is nice for small business use. The first issue I had was that the back of the backing paper was very paper like. If you use an adhesive mat (like cricut, & even on a light grip) to cut your stickers, it is very difficult to get the stickers off afterwards without ripping the backing. Even if you do manage to get the backing off without ripping it, which takes a lot of patience, a little sticky residue still remains. So then the back will stick to other stickers & stuff, and even transfers to whatever it was stuck to. Probably not a big deal for personal use, but for a small business it leaves an unprofessional feel if the back of your stickers are ripped or slightly sticky. Second was an adhesion issue. I used this for awhile in my small business, and 90% or the time it worked great. But for some weird reason, there are a few brands of powder coated metal water bottles it just won't stick to, but other brands it's just fine. The brands I found that aren't compatible are Stanley, Yeti, CamelBak, & sometimes Oowala.

My absolute favorite sticker paper. Works great and I love how well it prints and cuts. The only sticker paper I buy niw

My go to sticker paper. Love it!

No es la primera vez que compro éste papel sticker, me parece excelente lo recomiendo. Resistente al agua, incluso lo utilizo en trabajos de llaveros con resina y la imágen no se oscurece con la resina, no necesito ponerle otro tipo de recubrimiento a la imagen como laminados ni nada.

On the product page it's saying Glossy Sticker paper but it's not glossy at all. It's matte paper. The print quality is good, also it's not waterproof. Overall good but not as described.
