Avery Clear Laminating Sheets, 9" x 12", Permanent Self-Adhesive, 50 Self-Laminating Sheets, Great for Protecting Documents, Photos, and Signs More (73601)

I love these laminating sheets are all kinds of uses. The best part is the "perforated" part at the top for easy peeling. Those sheets without get stuck to everything and are so hard to use. These are so easy to use and leave a great finish on any document.

These really are the best self-adhesive, no heat or machine required, laminating sheets. I use it for everything that I want to protect. This is my second time purchasing.

I’ve been using these one-sided laminating sheets consistently for the past three years to create stickers for my Etsy shop. They’ve never let me down—my stickers always come out clear, waterproof, and scratch-resistant thanks to these sheets. The adhesive is strong, and I rarely have issues with bubbles. On the rare occasion that bubbles do appear, they’re easy to smooth out using a credit card or similar tool. The quality and consistency have kept me coming back time and time again. Highly recommend for small business owners, crafters, or anyone looking for durable laminating sheets that deliver professional results.

Very lightweight and worth the money. These are the only ones I’ll buy. They work great for what I need.

These work great as advertised, are pretty waterproof, a decent price, and are quite scratch-resistant (as in, they won't tear through to the paper beneath if scratched, not that they don't leave marks if scratched) They have VERY strong adhesion once attached to paper (make sure you align it right before you stick it on, or it's not coming off!), and are a pretty good buy if this is the type of thing you need. However, the texture can be a little "wobbly" is how I'd put it, so if you want a perfectly smooth surface, this might not be it for you.

These were perfect for my needs. They were easy to use (as easy to use as laminating sheets usually are). They adhered well to the cardstock I applied them to. If you want a smooth adhesion without bubbles or anything make sure you are applying with a smoothing tool of some sort or a ruler or something (save yourself some trouble and look up a youtube video of how to properly apply a laminating sheet (again not a pouch) and you will likely not have any serious issues with bubbles or wrinkles. You should be aware that there is a slight crease because the backing is cut near the edge to help you peel a small area to line up your item without sticking the whole thing down. This crease does not show up much when proper application is used on most paper products but on something like a photo it may be more visible. If using with a photo you may want to line photos up to the edge of that line so it does not go through the middle of an image. Many people who are unhappy with this product seem to be confused about what they are buying. It should be clear that what you are getting is not a laminating pouch it is laminating sheets. This means it covers one side of a sheet of paper. In order to create a double sided laminated item where it is completely enclosed you will need to use two sheets together. For double sided lamination I would definitely recommend a pouch as those are much easier to work with with for that type of application. These sheets however are perfect for uses where only one side needs lamination (like homemade stickers, boxes that only need a protective layer on the outside, adding a protective layer to things like the cover of a paperback book to make it more durable, etc...) Some people have likened this product to contact paper. Personally I do not find the two items comparable. Contact paper I've used does not adhere as well as these sheets (clearly a different adhesive must be used) and is thinner. For example I have been able to rip contact paper but I cannot rip these laminating sheets. They are thinner than an adhesive laminating pouch or a thermal pouch and will not provide the same stiff type of protection as those. Also, these sheets do not have a high gloss finished look it's more like a semi-gloss type finish to it, it's not dull but its not extremely shiny. I liked the weight and finish for my uses which was to add an additional layer for outside protection on a calendar box but for those looking for heavy duty laminates that create a stiff hard cover over both sides of a document... this is not the product for you.

Okay. I needed to laminate a number of pictures for a Cub Scout scavenger hunt. Each picture was almost the size of sheet of paper (8.5x11 inches) and colored with markers. I read a number of reviews and questioned whether this would truly meet my needs, but decided to give it a shot since I had no interest in yet ANOTHER machine that would collect dust in between infrequent uses. This truly met my needs (eventually). First things first, if you want to laminate the front and the back of something, you will need two separate laminating sheets. Example: You have ten things that need to be laminated front and back. You will need twenty total laminating sheets because these aren’t pouches or envelopes. Also, the plastic isn’t as thick as most laminating plastic. Even though the plastic is thinner, it’s thick enough and flexible enough to protect my images from kid-craziness. (Ha!) I must admit two or three of my fifteen images ended up a little wrinkled. (Thankfully, they were only wrinkled on the back side.) Once I figured out the best way of handling these sheets, it was smooth sailing. Here’s the process I used: 1. Cut images down to size. These laminating sheets won’t seal well if you are using a sheet of paper the same size as the plastic. 2. Peel off a laminating sheet and lay it down on a flat surface. The sticky side up should be up. 3. Grab your image/paper and hover it over the laminating sheet, front side down. (I stayed one to two inches away from the laminating sheet to get the best placement.) Once you lay it down, there’s no turning back. Lay down one side then slowly lower it bit by bit until you reach the next side. Move this sheet away. 4. Peel and lay your second laminating sheet down onto your table. 5. Grab the original image and laminating sheet and use the hover technique again. The sticky side/back should be down. Instead of laying the image down slowly, I literally just dropped the image down onto the bottom sheet. By doing this, I avoided all of the wrinkles that I got using the other technique. 6. Smooth the laminated image with your hand. The bright colors of my images only dimmed a little. (Yay!). I will definitely purchase these again.

I use these for a lot of things & buy them every so often. Easy to use - just peel the back off & stick.
