And a Good Evening to everyone,
A while back I ask about Sloan and I had good reports. Well. I ordered from them, and gor my clocks and other stuff too. I also ordered some removable adhesive paper. I used it today. And I have to saay it sure beats any spray. It peeled off with very little scrapeing, and there was no glue to deal with. I just thought I would let you all know about it, which most of you alreay knew.

Thanks for the tip Gene. I have not used the adhesive paper. I plan to try it sometime.

one other thing Dan, it dosn't lift up off the board either while you are cutting.

i have been using removable paper for years now. i would never go back to the spray glue. i stick it on blue tape and it has never lifted up while cutting and it is very easy to removed. no more heat guns and mineral spirits. Mike

That's what I'm talking about! I'm using adhesive paper too.
It's so easy, come off so simple. I usually put the sticker above the painter tape to avoid ripping the sticker. Works also for fragile parts!

To the concern about the cost: It's a big time saver, no handling of heat guns and other tools. Just rip the pattern sticker off.

I like it to! I have also just bought nearly the same thing from office supply stores. I don't use it exclusively, but quite often. As Torsten said, the increased cost is paid for in convenience and time savings. Often I will print more than a single pattern on a sheet to make use of the whole sheet, and then just use the 2nd pattern when needed.

This is something I may try in the near future. It does sound convenient.

@Bill
That's what I'm doing too. It also helps on saving wood if the patterns are already packed. I also have a folder in my wood shop for the patterns I do not use directly.

I use plain old shelof paper. Cut it to the size I want run it through the printer peel the backing stick it on the wood and cut. Works for me.

All this talk is great, but no one is mentioning product names or cost per sheet or sizes.
How about the nitty gritty guys.
I know back when I was messing with RC planes I wanted to make some decals to put on it.
Clear adhesive "paper" was a buck a sheet 8 1/2 by 11 at local ofice supply slash print shop.
Don't ask the name all I remember is it started with "A". LOL

Haven't tried the adhesive paper, do you not use the packing tape with that stuff??

geneVG · « **Reply #12 on:** August 18, 2011, 09:50:38 am »

I still put the tape on the bottom or top to help lub the blade.

@ Gabby
The cost is relative. You need to consider the simpler handling, the time you can save. Also think of the less complicated removing of the pattern - even fragile parts can easily be handled.

Still didn't answer my questions Torsten.
