What Are Clear Window Clings?

Completely customizable and easily repositionable, window clings are designed for installing on windows in less than a minute. Made from an optically clear vinyl material, clear window clings are designed to seamlessly showcase logos, fonts, and designs without messy adhesive. No adhesive, no problem. Window clings are designed for non-adhesive application while providing a secure ‘cling’ to the window, making for easy placement, removal, and repositioning or re-use. Custom window clings can be displayed on glass, metal, plastic, or any other non-porous surface for temporary or long-term use.

From customization to printing services, we cover every detail of your display requirements. Order your clear window clings today and enjoy affordable bulk printing prices.

No Messy Adhesive
Without adhesive, window clings are easy to use and leave no residue during install or removal. No mess. No hassle.

Removable and Repositionable

Unlike most traditional window decals, window clings are designed to be placed on a window, removed when needed, then reused without losing adhesion strength. The secret to this is in the vinyl material of the cling which acts like a mini-suction cup when firmly pressed to the surface. To adhere it to a window or surface, remove the white backing, spray a light soap and water mixture on to the cling and surface, then press firmly into place. Your customized cling will then stick to the surface, free of any bubbles or creases.

When you want to reposition the window cling, simply peel it away from the surface, spray with soapy water, and stick again - just like magic! If you want to store the cling in between use, just remove it from the window and re-apply the white, protective backing that came with the window cling.

Clear Background

An optically clear background offers a transparent display option for your window or storefront. All areas of your design that do not have a background color will remain transparent and see through from both sides. Please keep in mind that areas where ink is printed will not be optically clear.

Also, designs uploaded to our design tool with colored or solid backgrounds across the entire design will not be clear - if you want a solid colored background, go with our opaque window clings! Need help removing that pesky background? Use PNG files with transparent backgrounds or take advantage of our free design services to help make your window cling clear and beautiful!

Static Clings vs Window Clings

What are static clings and do they differ from window clings? The easiest way to describe a static cling is a decal that sticks without any adhesive. Our clear window clings are synonymous with clear static clings. The different terms is simply a case of semantics. The vinyl material of our window clings acts like a suction cup when placed and pressed onto a smooth, non-porous surface. Clear window clings will easily adhere to windows and other smooth surfaces without any adhesive.

With proper installation your window cling can stay in place for a year or more when cared for and placed properly. Not only do they stay in place but because no adhesive is used they can be removed and reapplied again and again. So, whether you call them clear static clings or clear window clings you’ll be getting a versatile window sign.

How to Install Clear Window Clings

Applying your window cling can be done in a few simple steps. All you need is the window cling, a clean surface, a soap and water mixture in a spray bottle, and a squeegee (available for purchase with a window cling).

step 1 showing a window being sprayed with window cleaner

Thoroughly clean the surface of the glass or non-porous surface you’re applying the window cling to. Use water or any other household window cleaner.

step 2 showing hands peeling away a clear window cling from the protective backing by a window

Once the surface is clean, gently peel the white backing away from the cling.

step 3 showing orange spray bottel spraying a window with water and dish soap solution

Use a light soap and water mixture to spray the window and the non-printed side of your cling (the front for inside glass window clings or the rear for outside glass, or standard surface, window clings).

step 4 showing hands applying a clear window cling to window

Apply the cling to the surface by starting at the top, applying pressure as you work your way to the bottom.

step 5 showing a hand using a squeegee to smooth out a clear window cling after applying the cling to a window

Use a squeegee* to remove excess water and bubbles.

*Available for purchase with clear window clings and other decal products

step 6 showing hand peeling a clear window cling away from a window

Once dry, your window cling will adhere to the window, while still being removable and repositionable!

Care

Custom clear window clings can be easily cleaned using a damp cloth. Gently wipe dirt or residue from the surface of the cling and surrounding window. When needing to store the window cling, simply remove it from the window, wipe it down to remove any surface dirt, then re-apply the protective backing on the ‘adhesive’ side. If you don’t have the protective backing, wax paper can be used as a protective backing.

“I purchased clear window clings to use for our seating chart for our wedding. I purchased 16 of them and each one had a table number and the guests names. We used these to put on a mirror to display at the seating chart for dinner. I was able to customize my order to exactly what I needed - very easy to work with customization on the website. I paid for expedited shipping/processing and my signs were here within 2 days. They were packaged nicely.”
Perfect.

Q:
Does it cost more money to print in full color?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

No, it doesn’t cost more money to print in full color because everything we print is in full color. For this reason, there isn’t a discount to print only one or two colors. Instead, the price of your sign will be dictated by the size and the quantity you select. Design whatever you wish without fear of making your sign cost more. You can also contact us and we’ll design what you envision free of charge.

Q:
Can the clings be cut to shape? Individual letters?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Yes, we offer several shape options for our clear window clings including square/rectangle, rounded corners with a ¼” radius or 1” radius, circle/oval, and custom with border (previously known as or sometimes referred to as halo). We typically don’t recommend Custom with Border though because the clear part of the cling is extremely clear making it unnecessary in most cases have the cut match the shape of your design. However, by selecting the option Custom With Border you can customize clings to any shape or size.

If you are looking for individually cut vinyl letters for your storefront or home windows, you are most likely looking for vinyl lettering which is a different product entirely.

Q:
What type of adhesive is used on the window clings?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Window clings do not use an adhesive backing to stick om the surface. Window clings stick due to the vinyl material acting much like a suction cup when placed and pressed onto a smooth, non-porous surface such as glass, metal or plastic. We’ve written a more in-depth article about how static clings work if you need more information.

Q:
Do you offer custom sizes or shape for clear window clings?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

You have the freedom to customize your window cling to almost any size you want. Input the width and height you need on the calculator to do so. Take note there is a minimum and maximum dimension for the window clings. Clings can’t be smaller than 3” and no bigger than 300”. Clings smaller than 3” x 3” do not adhere as well and may result in printing that is not as clear due to our large format printers.

Q:
Can I display my window cling outside or in any climate?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

For the most part, window clings will work in a wide variety of climates. But we recommend displaying your window clings indoors. By selecting “Inside Glass” and using clear static clings, you can still advertise on the storefront and apply it behind the window. You avoid exposing the clear window clings to extremely humid, wet or frigid weather that can damage the display. Outdoor application on windows or vehicle windows is best in moderate weather and conditions.

Q:
Will these window clings stick to non-glass surfaces?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Window clings will stick to any glass surface. In most cases, they will also stick to smooth surfaces like acrylic and solid plastics. They will not stick well to drywall, wood, and other similar surfaces. The surface they stick to must also be nonporous, which means it can’t have any pores or crevices where water and air come in. You can also apply the clear window cling on a solid unpainted surface.

Q:
Can I use my window cling outside? On cars, trucks or other vehicles?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Clings are most typically used inside. Although they can be used outdoors, we don’t normally recommend it. If you are going to use them outdoors make sure to follow installation instructions and remove them before any severe weather. Due to their ability to be removed and reapplied quickly and easily using them outdoors can work.

If you want them to display outside but be installed inside, select “Inside Glass” which means that we’ll reverse print your cling. You can then hang your cling on the inside of your storefront or window to be viewed by those outside or approaching your business. This method of printing accomplishes the visibility you want and keeps the cling out of the elements. However, make sure that your window isn’t tinted or the visibility of your cling will be limited.

We do not recommend clings be used on the exterior of any type of vehicle. They are not designed to be placed on cars and will fly off your vehicle if placed on it. We recommend our car decals or magnets for car signage.

Q:
What about the inside of my car or truck?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Yes, you can place them on the inside of your car or truck. If you want it viewed on the inside, do not select “Inside Glass” as an option. Conversely, if you want it viewed on the outside of the car, be sure to check the “Inside Glass” option when ordering. While we would still recommend a vinyl decal for a more permanent option using a clear window cling this way would still allow you to use them inside a vehicle for people to see the sign from the outside.
Q:
Can I reposition clear window clings? Will it leave a residue?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

If you follow the installation and storage instructions, your window clings can be removed and reused as often as you’d like. Removing them from the window should not leave behind any sticky adhesive residue.

Q:
What are clings typically used for?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Window clings are generally used by retail stores, restaurants, spas, salons, grocery stores and more. Typically, the signs themselves help promote sales and promotions, entice customers to enter the store, advertise store hours, decorate locations during holiday or seasonal times, and point of purchase advertising. Clings also work great for temporary settings such as trade show booths and conference centers.
