Sticker Paper & Adhesive Vinyl for xTool Machines
Sticker media is a cut material, not an engraved one. Every sheet is three layers — printed face, adhesive, and a silicone liner behind it. The whole job is to sever the top two and stop inside the liner, so the sheet still peels. Cut too deep and it falls apart; too shallow and it never comes off.
What a Sticker Sheet Is Made Of
Printable stock is paper or PET with an adhesive back, 0.1mm to 0.7mm thick. Solid-colour craft vinyl is far thinner, around 0.02mm, which is why it wants a slow, light pass.
Face material decides the finish: matte paper takes ink softly, PET holds holographic and glitter effects and survives water.
Packs run $4.99 to $20.99.
Print Then Cut, or Cut and Weed
Printable media goes under an inkjet head first, then the outline is cut around the printed art. Registration is the whole game: the machine has to find the print before it cuts.
Solid-colour vinyl skips printing. You cut the shape and weed away the rest, so fine interior detail is limited by what tweezers can lift.
Four Kinds of Sticker Media
Face material decides the look, the liner decides how it cuts.
Three Ways to Cut It
The M2 carries the most sticker jobs, with its printer module and its diode. The M1 Ultra adds the fine-point blade.
