Vehicle Decals

Removable car decals can be repositioned, which can be useful if you need to adjust its placement on your vehicle. Permanent decals, on the other hand, cannot be repositioned without causing damage.

Yes. Our decals work on any make or model of car or truck. More detail is provided on the respective product pages.

Yes, all five decal types are made from vinyl material but have significant differences that should be noted. Our car and truck lettering decal is made by cutting your design directly out of solid-colored vinyl and does not include any printed graphics. Opaque and clear car decals differ in visibility/transparency, as the former is printed on opaque material and is better suited for doors or sides of vans or delivery trucks. Due to their see-through material, clear decals can be used on car windows. The ideal usage of clear decals is when an opaque background is not wanted. Alternatively, perforated decals, with their 50:50 ratio of solid material and perforated holes, offer the best choice for car windows, especially on rear windows for cars or trucks. The perforated material provides a solution for full-sized decals that don’t impede the driver’s visibility. We recommend using perforated car decals only when an entire window is covered to ensure the privacy of the driver, passengers, and others on the road. As for high-adhesive decals, these are made with opaque vinyl material and are best for placing on the body or doors of your vehicle.

All of the decals come with a removable lining that when peeled away leaves an adhesive backing.

The term “car sticker” is often used when describing a car decal but is not normally a common signage industry term. “Car decals” or “decals” are the terms most often used when looking for a car sign with an adhesive or sticky backing.

While there are common sizes of car decals (12”x12”, 18”x12”) there aren’t really any industry standard car decal sizes. This is because each car or truck model/type differs from the next. Thus, we highly recommend measuring the spot on your vehicle where the decal will be placed. Correct measurements will ensure a decal doesn’t come off the vehicle prematurely due to air getting underneath the decal.

The custom aspect of the decal is in regard to design, size, and type. We print everything in full color so you have the flexibility of printing virtually any design you may want. Likewise, you can customize one of our existing templates or use our free professional design services to have us custom create one for you. The decal size is also completely custom. Rather than offering only standard sizes for our decals we have a few common options with the ability to literally select any size you might need.

Lastly, no matter if you need clear, opaque, perforated or vinyl lettering, we offer all types of car decals. Thus, regardless of your situation and needs you should be able to find or design a custom decal that works perfectly for you.

Decals are a great choice for a long-lasting vehicle signage solution. This can be to advertise a personal business or even for fleet or company cars. Though removing your decal is fairly easy, these decals are considered semi-permanent and are not designed to be removed and reapplied. For more temporary car signs, one should select our car magnets. These are a perfect sign option that can be removed and reapplied on a regular basis.

No, car decals are not the same as a cling. A cling is a type of sign that adheres to a surface using static electricity rather than an adhesive backing. So while some may call them car clings or window clings for cars this is a misnomer. Generally, static clings are better off inside. For vehicles you should choose from one of the decal options including car/truck lettering, clear, opaque, perforated, or high adhesive.

Generally speaking, design for any of the decal types can be done in similar fashion as long as best practices are followed. Best practices for designing car decals include not putting too much text on the sign, keeping the design simple, having a clear call to action, and using contrasting colors. Contrasting colors are particularly important for clear car decals since the decal itself won’t contrast with any text you may put on your sign.
