What Are Outdoor Wall Decals?

Outdoor wall decals, also known as outdoor wall stickers or outdoor wall graphics, are perfect for customizing storefronts, office buildings, schools and more. Unlike most outdoor wall graphics, ours are manufactured out of an aluminum foil base that’s both recyclable and PVC-free. Its superior adhesive and quality gives it a longer lifespan versus vinyl alternatives, as well as the ability to conform to virtually any unsmooth or uneven surface.

The aluminum base also boasts more vibrant colors, better visibility day and night, all while being abrasion and weather resistant. Best of all, no special tools are required for installation: it’s as easy as peeling and placing on any exterior wall!

Use them to advertise ongoing sales, to guide customers, brand walls for events, and more!

Outdoor wall decals should not be applied to painted or sealed surfaces. Both of these can result in problems during removal.


Foil-based Graphics vs. Vinyl Alternatives

Our foil-based outdoor wall graphics offer a number of advantages that make them an easy decision over vinyl products for outdoor use on the surfaces outlined above. These advantages include: superior durability, installation without having to use special tools, the ability to conform or be applied to uneven surfaces, easier and cleaner removal, and a more vibrantly printed design that appears as if it has been painted onto the end surface. We’re confident you’ll love your custom outdoor wall graphics!

Installation and Removal

Most outdoor wall decals require extensive cleaning and pressure washing of the surface prior to application. Because our graphics are foil-based, installation of your custom graphic is much easier. In most cases, simply spray down the wall or surface to ensure it is free of dirt and grime and you’ll be ready to apply it in the desired location. No heat gun. No sealers. Just press and stick. It’s that simple!

Best of all, when you’re ready to remove your graphics, they will come off clean, in one piece, leaving no residue or marks.

Installation

To properly install your outdoor wall decal the surface must first be prepared before application. The application surface where applied should be above freezing when first applied. For best results, apply your graphic when the surface temperature is above 50 F.

Please Note: For large decals intended to cover entire windows or large surfaces we recommend professional installation for best results.

Surface Preparation
  1. Clean the surface to ensure it is free of debris for proper adhesion. Your main goal is to remove any dirt or grime that may prevent adhesion. A hose or power washer is typically sufficient.
  2. Avoid applying your graphic over any foreign or loose substances or cracks/crevices that may negatively impact the graphic's ability to properly adhere.
  3. A mixture of 50/50 to 70/30 percent isopropyl alcohol (IPA) + water can be used for dirty surfaces where the adhesion could be difficult. After applying the solution, spray it with a hose and allow it to air dry. This step is rarely needed.
Applying the Decal

Once your surface is clean and completely dry, section by section, remove the brown paper back liner from the decal. Please note that the decal is not repositionable, so it’s important that you lay it precisely where you want it on the desired surface. Avoid crinkling your decal in any way before application

Lay the decal on the desired surface, pressing firmly from the center out to the edges, ensuring the material conforms to the surface beneath to maximize adhesion. For uneven surfaces it is best to apply the decal a little bit at a time to make sure it adheres (because the decal is not stretchy by nature).

To make installation easier, a hand roller (optional purchase) can be used to apply even pressure across the decal to ensure it sticks properly after pressing it to the surface with your hand.

Adhesion is instant and permanent once completely pressed. The adhesive material will take about 24 hours to completely set.

Note: We do not recommend applying to painted and/or sealed surfaces. Also, avoid cracks or crevices as they may prevent adhesion or leade to be unintentional punctures.


Care
To clean your graphic(s), lightly spray with water from a low pressure hose and wipe with a soft cloth; avoid harsh cleaning chemicals as they may damage or negatively affect the graphic. You may opt to use a pressure washer set at “Low” no closer than 36”. Using a power washer on too intense a setting or too close to the graphic may cause damage, especially near the edges.

Q:
What are the common uses of outdoor wall decals?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
Outdoor wall decals have a wide range of uses including directional uses in factories, warehouses, and parking garages, branding of brick and mortar business locations, public transit stops and platforms, university campuses and other public spaces. They are also commonly used in home or personal applications in a variety of decorative ways on exterior walls.
Q:
Does installation require any special tools or additional people?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
Generally speaking, our outdoor wall decals are easy to install and can be done without any specialized tools. Nonetheless, a rubber hand roller (also known as J-Roller) can assist in ensuring the decal is pressed evenly onto the desired surface. These rollers are offered as an additional accessory for purchase, available in the options section of our design tool. Smaller graphics can easily be installed by just one person, however we do recommended additional hands for installing larger graphics as they will need to be applied precisely and correctly the first time. For extra large decals that may require paneling, please contact us if you are interested in professional installation services.
Q:
Do your outdoor wall decals require heat or a heat gun to be used?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
As noted above, no special tools beyond an optional hand roller need to be used to install your outdoor wall graphics. This includes the use of a heat gun which is commonly needed when installing vinyl based outdoor decals. One of the major advantages of our outdoor graphics is the peel and stick nature coupled with amazing durability

Q:
How do I remove my outdoor wall decal? Will it leave behind any residue or sticky substances? Do I need special tools?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:

It’s simple to remove your outdoor wall decal. You only need to peel it away from the surface, starting from one corner of the decal, continuing until the entire decal separates from thef surface. The decal will remove in one piece without any residue, from unsealed surfaces. Typically no residue or adhesive will be left behind when you remove your decal from the surface. If there is residual adhesive left behind most standard mild adhesive cleaners can be used to remove it.

Q:
How do I discard my decals?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:

These outdoor wall decals are 100% recyclable, as they’re manufactured out of a PVC-free aluminum. Simply deposit them in the nearest recycling receptacle

Q:
How do I wash and clean my outdoor wall decals?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:

To clean your decals, avoid the use of powerful pressure washers and abrasive cloths. A soft wash cloth and warm water will suffice to keep your wall decals clean and visible. Lightly spraying the decal from a garden hose or a low pressure power washer from a distance greater than 36” can also help to clean the decals. If using a low power pressure washer avoid spraying it directly at the edges of your decal even when you are at least 36” away.

Q:
Can I store my graphics before applying them?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
Prior to use, these decals may be stored provided they are kept in a cool, dry place and are not heavily stacked, as so doing may cause wrinkling which could prevent the decal from properly adhering.
Q:
