Shame citrus strip is not available in the UK. Do you know any other alternatives we can use here? Thank you

Awesome Projects! More genius ways to use Citristrip. I've watched some videos
and you upped the technique with your projects. Thank you for this tutorial. I've been waiting to get it and now I will. Thanks Angie! 😊

I would love to see you try the tinfoil and heat gun method! It works much better and faster! It takes a 2 hr project and takes it down to in most cases 10 mins with the Citrus Strip and several mins with the heat gun/tinfoil. It's the method I used for the ones I did. I learned it from Makers Gonna Learn (LIVE: ETCHING COATED TUMBLERS WITH YOUR CRICUT! No Laser needed ) then altered it for each tumbler. :) They used StarCraft Permanent Vinyl which seems to stick better and I didn't have any leakage. I do like the fact that you used the heat gun to kinda bond the vinyl to the tumbler a little, I don't think they did that in their video. I love your videos. You are always so through. Thanks again!
