Yellowing around cuts

Here you go.

Check #2:

And then:

As for sticking too well, masking sticks better the smoother your surface is. If you’ve got a very smooth material you might want to try low tack masking, not medium.

Thanks Evansd2 but the sandwich method does not work for me. The blue tape does not pick up the masking, any which way I try.
What transfer paper specifically to you use? And what blue tape?
I think my transfer tape is too sticky.
Thanks!

See above, check #2, I talk about what masking I use. That was the whole reason I took the time to include it.

As for blue painters tape I use standard 3m ~3" wide painters tape.

I use a tool to press the blue tape down thoroughly and get great results. Again, though, if I were masking very smooth wood or plexi the blue tape wouldn’t stick well enough to do the job.

I read through your post twice now and I cannot see any info on what type of transfer tape you use. Not the blue tape, the white masking.
Would you mind just spelling it out for me since I cannot seem to see what you are talking about?

Section #2, I mention perfectear plus. It points to this post, where that and other brands are discussed:

Most of the paper brands are pretty similar.

Anyway, that’s the brand, and I get it from sign warehouse.
