I like to do a lower heat and time and then like to do multiple passes over the mug.
Does vinyl stick to powder coat yeti.
No i don t clear coat the vinyl.
I just monogrammed this black matte powder coated yeti with patterned vinyl.
The glass does have a higher chance of breaking when heated so you want to use caution.
Sometimes i ll run a hot gun or hair dryer over it as the heat makes the vinyl stick a bit better.
651 vinyl on powder coated yeti i never do vinyl projects but offered to cut and now apply a vinyl decal to one of the powder coated series yetis.
I don t think i.
I m also wondering if i can simply clear coat the frame fork and it will come out nice and glossy or will it look like orange peel.
Most people say the vinyl needs room to breathe so it s not good to coat it.
When shooting the part hot use the lowest temperature that allows the powder to stick to the part generally 175 to 200 degrees f and try to avoid spraying excess powder on the part as much as possible.
I ve created a couple decals for powder coated yeti cups using oracle 651 glossy vinyl and applied with no problems.
Do i powder coat the entire project and do a partial.
The double blast technique is created using sr3000 self stick photoresist film on a powder coated yeti.
Powder coat is not glossy and i m wondering if vinyl decals will stick well enough for a commuter bike.
Usually you have to scrape pretty hard to get the vinyl off unless it s a really thin piece.
I found a really cool patterned matte vinyl by the paper studio sold by hobby lobby and made a decal to place on another yeti cup however the vinyl will not stick.
I have googled a bit because i feel i haven t seen many projects on here on mugs bottles with that finish and saw two tips.
Protect your hand from the heat and also from any potential breakage.
Common types of vinyl used for powder coating are oracal 631 and oracal 651.
This means that heat transfer vinyl products that require a higher temperature are not ideal.
I hear conflicting ideas on that.
I love the way it turned out.
