Save Time And Frustration – Keep A Record, Here’s How: If your Cricut blade is going cutting too deep or not cutting how it should, your blade may need replacing, you may have chosen the incorrect vinyl type or you may be using the wrong blade altogether. HTV is thin and has a stronger clear plastic backing as opposed to glitter and fluorescent sticker vinyl, which is thicker than standard sticker vinyl.

The chances of cutting right through the backing paper on sign vinyl are high and this is something I’ve done more than once with a new blade! I even managed to cut through the mat on one occasion! Doh!įor example, heat transfer vinyl is thinner and more flexible than sticker vinyl. If you buy a new blade, you will just have to test, test and test again, as I’ve found the settings for your old Silhouette blade will probably not work with a brand new blade that’s all sharp and shiny new!
