Waterproof is a stronger claim and means that you can do more than briefly expose the sticker to water.

That way after you laminate them in a folder you can just cut the two sheets apart and they will only be laminated in the front. I think you’ll agree with me when I say that it’s super disappointing when you go to all the trouble to make handmade stickers, and your ink runs when it gets a little wet. There is no prep time for the self-adhesive sheets, you just line everything up, peel back the top like a hinge, and then pull off the backing. But, it sometimes had wavy lines where it didn’t heat properly, and if I didn’t let it warm up the full 7-9 minutes, then the laminate didn’t fully bond to the sticker paper surface.We find that waterproof stickers also work wonderfully with keeping bottles of Sauvignon cold in wine coolers, shampoos, lotions, and oils and make a perfect accompanying addition to outdoor products such as plant pots and outdoor furniture and equipment.

There are pros and cons for all three different ways, which I’ll explain below so you have the important information you need to choose the most effective method that’s best for you and your small businesses. I printed a sticker on glossy paper, tried the scotch matte tape and my cricut still won’t cut out my design. Could it be that I didn’t wait long enough for them to dry before putting them through the laminator?

You’ll either have to test the settings for the perfect cut, or the easy way is to use the spray adhesive for your kiss cut stickers.
