Will this cut through vinyl mat? Looking for something to cut out vinyl polka dot decals.

Craft vinyl yes, home repair vinyl no. However, itwwill dull your punch. I will try a craft knife and stencil.

The mat is made of a rubber material so it can be cut, but I think cutting it will leave jagged, unfinished edges depending on which edge you choose to cut along.

Pvc or plastic? I'd be concerned about melting rather than cutting. Try it on a small piece before investing in much material you may not be able to use.

Probably. I used it to "slice" through a big plastic Easter egg. Just be aware of the fumes and wear a mask. I also used it on floor mats that were about 3/4 of an inch thick. Make sure you have a couple of new blades on hand! It's a great little tool!

I am not sure that this will do the job you are hoping to do...I have heard of the foam knifes being used to cut stamps, but the ones I have heard of doing so are hot knifes. This cuts foam board well because it has the blade for the paper and the heat for the foam. I think you need more heat than what this will give you.

No you cannot cut on this. I used an exacto knife on it and it sliced this mat up. Bummer.

It should be able to cut through EVA foam with a thickness less than 1/2 inch due to the blade width. Do be wary of fumes from the EVA foam as you are cutting. Just from cutting vinyl and pleather covered fabrics there is already some toxic plastic fumes. Hope that helps!Dremels might be a better option for cutting and shaping EVA foam.

Absolutely. A razor blade or moderately sharp scissors will easily cut it. I cut it into 20x46" panels to insulate the inside of my metal garage door. Just one heads up: if you ever want to affix it to vinyl (say a vinyl coated metal garage door...) be sure to use vinyl adhesive. The other stuff won't work.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to cut the mat to fit your layout or what the best approach would be. I would actually suggest you call Slip-X Solutions/Venturi and ask them. I found their customer service to be extremely helpful, and I doubt they would steer you wrong based on how helpful they were to me. You might want to email or call the Customer Care Administrator I spoke with. Her name is Leslie and her phone number is (231) 929-7732 ext.223

You might be able to cut felt as long as you had a new sticky mat that would hold the material well. After you cut, I would imagine that the mat would not be worth keeping because of all the tiny fibers that would stick to it. Myself, I don't think I would try it. I really wish Cricut would create a product that would clean the mat from residue fibers (even from paper) so that they would last longer. Hope this helps.

I can't remember if I've ever specifically cut glitter paper. But I have cut everything from tissue paper to the boards from children's board books successfully, so I wouldn't hesitate to put glitter paper in it. This is a great tool.

I don't think it would work. The tool does not have a sharp blade for cutting paper or cardboard. The hot knife melts through foam, therefore "cutting" it. Paper does not melt. The hot knife gets really hot, and would melt the core that is sandwiched between the poster board, but wouldn't melt the poster board on the outside. It might even catch the paper on fire. The hot knife is a wonderful tool for cutting styrofoam and I hope to try it out on corrugated plastic (Coroplast), because I think that would work. Maybe you could use Coroplast instead of foam core!

It depends on what you want to do with the Cameo. I bought it primarily to cut fabric for applique so I bought the fabric kit bundle because it included both size mats and the fabric blade. It comes with a regular blade so if I want to cut something other than fabric (like vinyl) I can use the standard blade to cut with.

hello,the mats are very flexible, I haven't cut mine, but I don't see why they couldn't be sized with scissors to fit your need:-)

I use for cutting out appliqued fabric pieces with paper backing attached. Have not cut individual paper with it. I do believe it would work.

This cutter works by using a very hard, diamond wheel to score a line on the ceramic tile, similar to a glass cutter. When the tile is stressed it will crack along the scored line. I doubt the score line it would make on a soft material, such as vinyl, would be deep enough to be useful for reliably breaking the vinyl along the score line.

Hello. I had no problem cutting this material. however, I did not purchase the super thick mat. I used a sharp box knife and a straight edge and was super pleased. I mated 4 pieces to cover the room. I hope this helps : - )
