Vinyl Stickers - Resin Phobic?

New to shaping and the forum.

Anyone know what the drawbacks of using vinyl stickers as laminate? My friend has a 24" vinyl cutter and we plan on using them as laminate or as pin strippings for complex designs. I realize that the greater the area the more likely it could de-laminate, but if kept in a minimum, will it work?

I don’t glass so I never tried it or experiment.

I don’t think they will work…I just bought a bunch of vinyl for a vac bag, and one of the important requirements of bag material is that it not stick to the work…for the small stuff, a test is in order…My guess is that as soon as a sharp impact hits whatever’s over the vinyl, the lam will separate, at least looking different, and probably weaker too, esp. in larger sizes, or long thin ones.

Hmmm… makes sense.

Does having a bigger (larger coverage) rice paper laminate cause the same problem (for instance cover the whole board with rice paper)? Does rice paper saturate in resin?

What I could prolly do is use a heavy weight rice paper roll that you get from the art stores and feed it through the vinyl cutter. We can replace the blade holder with somekind of acrylic/water based pen and start drawing on it. We might have to play with the tip pressure as to not rip the rice paper.

Thanks Wells.
