What's boot print vinyl?

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
...and?
I think most of the time this stuff is put down without any application tape. I dont do a lot of this stuff though.
Even though signs365 is about 20 mins away from me I dont use them very often. However when I have the vinyl is usually not weeded. So you could use the vinyl you would normally weed away as a perfectly spaced template.
IDK if they still do that or maybe they weed the stuff they ship to make the packages lighter. (I pick up my orders usually).

No problem. Glad you got if figured out.

It's vinyl that someone stepped on.

It's non-slip for outdoor applications on asphalt, concrete, and brick. Like what they use for logos on the street for parades, marathons, social distancing lines, etc.
Well, tell us all what kind of mask worked.

Boot vinyl is really thick with a rough lam to install on floor. He cannot get a transfer paper to stick to the rough lam S365 uses. I have used it and when you put it on where you want it it is stuck. You can just peel off backer and place down. Just put on clean floor and pencil mark some guides and remove backer and slowly install within marks. Pretty simple without pre mask which you do not need.

Why do you need PreMask / Transfer tape to apply to floors?

Some people like to use it on every install, change is unsettling.
First off to answer why I needed to use a mask. I wasn't installing the graphic on a floor I was installing it on a course brick wall and it was a graphic that contained several contour cut pieces and I needed to keep them together. I used a clear marine shrink wrap tape that worked great. It is very expensive and I now realize that there are other options for walls and at the time I was told by Signs365 this was my only option. Since finding this Forum I realize there are other options. Thank you to those of you that gave input and suggestions. I'm not new to doing graphic installs but I am to using them outside of the Marine world.
