How Do You Use Oracal 651 on Silhouette Cameo?

Using Oracle 651 on a Silhouette Cameo is a great way to make durable, professional-looking labels and decals for your projects. Oracle 651 is a strong, outdoor-grade vinyl that comes in a variety of colors and finishes. With its easy-to-use adhesive backing, it’s perfect for making custom labels, decals, and stickers for any project.

The first step to using Oracle 651 with your Silhouette Cameo is to select the appropriate material from the list of materials in the Silhouette software. Choose “Vinyl (Oracle 651)” from the list and then adjust the blade depth accordingly. You may need to experiment a bit with different blade depths depending on the thickness of your vinyl sheet.

Once you have selected the right material and adjusted the blade depth, you are ready to send your design to the machine. Load your Oracle 651 sheet onto the cutting mat, making sure that it is properly secured and that it lays flat against the mat.

Then load your cutting mat into your Silhouette machine and hit “Send” in the software. Your machine will now start cutting out your design.

Next, you will need to weed away all of the excess vinyl material that was not cut with your design. Use an oracal weeding tool or tweezers to carefully remove all of the unwanted pieces from around your design. Be careful not to damage or bend any of the pieces as this can affect how well they adhere when you go to apply them.

Finally, you can apply your design onto whatever surface you are working with. Make sure that whatever surface you are applying it too is clean and dry before application.

Gently peel away the transfer paper from behind your decal/label and then carefully place it onto whatever surface you are using. Use even pressure when applying it so that all edges stick down smoothly.

Using Oracle 651 on a Silhouette Cameo is an easy way to make custom labels, decals, and stickers for any project! With its strong adhesive backing and outdoor-grade quality, Oracle 651 makes for durable designs that will last through all kinds of weather conditions.
