KOALA PAPER Printable Vinyl Sticker for Inkjet Printer - 50 Sheets Matte White Waterproof, 8.5x11 Inch, Works With Cutting Machine

Love all Koalas item❤️

I ordered the matte version. The colors print beautifully, but the paper leaves a dusty residue and doesn’t feel like real vinyl. It’s also not water-resistant unless you add a protective layer. The print quality is nice, but I didn’t like the text on the back.

Love my sticker paper! I've bought this 5x now and this will continue to be in my cart. I've purchased other sticker papers in the past, some are too thin and some are not adhesive enough. This sticker paper has shown me it is very versatile and can be used to cut any type of stickers. The colors do not bleed, and as sticker, sticks well to clean and flat surfaces. I've used this for many projects. It cuts well in Cricut machines. The colors do not bleed. I've had no issues with this product and will continue to purchase as needed. I've recommended this sticker paper to other people as well who are interested in printing stickers. Do not hesitate to buy. Great product.

So first up, the adhesive/glue on this matte sticker paper is not super strong, it is definately best used as stickers for paper items. I had an inkling of this going in based on other reviews, but I was looking for journal/stationary stickers so that was fine. I printed several test stickers, stuck them on post-it note paper and while they stuck just fine, I was also able to peel them off again. I've not tested this on anything other than paper but I would guess that they'd not fare very well on glass/plastic/enamel. Probably not good for making water bottle stickers, as an example. I was impressed with how my printed images came out - crisp, clear details, vibrant colours, somewhat close in visual results to matte photo paper. These are 'paper feel on the front' and vinyl on the back. I have only tested with 'standard' print settings on my Epson EcoTank, because of the paper front I think this is the best setting - the higher print settings might lay down too much ink and cause bleed. The vinyl on the back makes them feel nice/a bit more 'luxe' than just paper labels. In terms of the 'waterproof' claim, I view any home print consumer products that claim this with a healthy dose of skepticism. I would say that these are sufficiently 'water resistant' though, due to a test: I waited 2 days after printing, then put a drop of water on one sticker and left it there for a few seconds - it stayed as a 'bead' of water & did not absorb into the sticker. When I wiped it away, it didn't smudge any of the printed image. I then smudged a tiny drop of water across the entire sticker and the image did not smudge but I think if anything more than this level of water exposure were to happen, the paper would start to wear a bit. I think this is about the best someone can expect out of 'waterproof' claims for this kind of sticker. I did not get a chance to test how water impacts the actual adhesion to anything. So if you just need journal stickers, or stickers to use as seals on envelopes, et cetera, I would say buy with confidence. If you want something more robust, best look for another sticker paper with a stronger adhesive!

Best sticker printer paper around! This is way better than the cricut sticker paper. The thickness is perfect and my cricut machine cuts it with ease. Everything I’ve printed on it comes out very vibrant. There are never any smudges.

Great sticker paper, been using for a while. I love that you're able to purchase in larger quantities. Print is vibrant, dries relatively quickly and paper doesn't curl. Sticks very well. Perfect thickness. I don't like that the paper changed however. There's now a light diagonally-lined texture on the printed side. It's been my last 4 50-page packs. The texture shows especially when laminated. Its not the biggest of deals except dust seems to get trapped on it more easily versus the older packs when there wasn't a weird texture. I have to keep re-making stickers because of this and I didn't have this issue with the old paper. :( My last sticker supplier changed and started selling a similar-textured paper.. and then went way downhill. Really hoping that's not what's happening here. Aside from the weird ugly dust-attracting texture, this paper is high quality and long lasting. I hope they switch back!
