Cons
- •Inconsistent adhesion properties of both the transfer tape and the vinyl.

Bottom Line
The Cricut Joy Transfer Tape is a solid choice for transferring glitter and shimmer vinyl designs, making it easy for beginners to use without leaving sticky residue. However, its inconsistent adhesion and potential to damage painted surfaces make it less versatile than other products for different vinyl types. If you're working with smaller details, you might need to consider other options, like the StrongGrip Transfer Tape, for more demanding projects.
