Question
What paper stocks can I choose for decals?
Answer
Decals are printed on vinyl rather than paper, since vinyl flexes, resists water, and holds an adhesive. The material you choose sets the look and how long the decal survives.
| Material | Look | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| White vinyl | Solid, opaque color | General indoor and outdoor use |
| Clear vinyl | See-through background | Glass and no-label looks |
| Specialty film | Reflective, laminated, textured | Outdoor, vehicles, high durability |
- Adhesive strength varies by material, from removable to permanent.
- A UV laminate boosts outdoor durability and slows fading.
- The specs section lists every stock available for your decal.
