Clear vs Die cut

I did not realize I had ordeded the clear sample pack — I had intended to order the die cuts. I have ordered the die cuts in the past, and I loved how they turned out. Vibrant colors and very clean cuts. My only issue with the die cuts is that the adhesive comes off almost completely when the sticker is removed from a surface. It takes a lot of work to remove the residual adhesive from the surface. The clear stickers, on the other hand, peel off much cleaner than the die cut stickers. Their primary downside is that they are not as vibrant as the die cut stickers. Oh well.
