Vehicle Decals

Yes, there is a significant difference in the decals beyond the design considerations noted above. Car and truck lettering does not have a background, and each letter is individually cut out, making it an excellent choice for your vehicle’s windows. As the name implies, opaque car decals should be used only on the sides of vehicles, as they will completely impair the driver’s visibility if placed on windows. Clear decals can be placed on the vehicle itself or on windows. However, the printed area will not be see-through even with clear car decals. Perforated decals offer the best solution for promoting your business or message while still being able to see through the sign. Perforated decals should always be used for rear windows and any large signs that will be used on the vehicle’s windows. High-adhesive decals have a powerful adhesive and should be used only for permanent applications, particularly on the doors or body of your vehicle.

Here's a quick guide on vehicle decal installation:

1. Wash the surface where the decal will be applied and let it air dry.
2. The backing of the decal should be removed so that the adhesive is now exposed.
3. For clear and opaque decals, a mixture of water and a drop of mild detergent should be sprayed onto the adhesive. This liquid will provide some wiggle room in positioning the decal on your vehicle. No water should be used on perforated decals.
4. The decals can then be placed onto the vehicle, and a squeegee is used to remove excess water.
5. Once dry, the adhesive properties will set in, and your decal will be in place.

Yes, decals are simple and quick to install; just make sure to follow the instructions carefully. For larger decals, more than one person needs to install them to ensure that the adhesive doesn’t touch or stick to another part of the decal. This can result in tears when trying to unstick the decal from itself, and getting someone to assist you will help prevent this from happening.

Your vehicle decals should not fall or fly off when driving in typical or inclement weather. It is critical to place the decals in a good position to help ensure that this doesn't happen. Decals should be placed on smooth or flat areas of your car. They should not be placed on paneling or cracks. As with any car decal, you should not use a pressure washer or a mechanical car wash. The water pressure and large brushes of either of these can damage your car decal beyond repair or even cause them to fall off.

Our decals are easy to remove. In most cases, you only need to peel them off your car and use a razor blade (for window placement) and soapy water to remove any residual adhesive material. In some cases, heating the decal with a blow dryer will allow for easier removal. Decals placed on painted areas should be removed with utmost care so as not to scratch the paint. Regardless of the type of decal you choose, it shouldn’t damage the car or paint job. This is true both when installing and removing the decal.

Car decals are very durable and can last for more than eight years without cracking or fading.

Although you can stick our car decals on painted surfaces, as a precautionary measure, we suggest that you don’t immediately apply a vehicle decal on a new paint job. It’s better to let the surface completely dry first before applying your car decal.
