How to Install Opaque Car Decals
The following instructions are to help you have a successful, timely install of your opaque car decal. The installation is a simple process and requires no professional help. We recommend installing your decal in an environment that is dry with a temperature above 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Clean the desired surface with soap and water, removing all dust and dirt particles. If dust and dirt is not fully removed from the surface this may cause small air bubbles in your decal and prevent it from adhering properly. After cleaning the surface, either allow time for the surface to air dry or remove excess water with a rubber squeegee.
Before you remove the backing from the decal, we recommend placing it on your vehicle to ensure that the size and fit are as you want. A dry erase marker can help you mark the edges where you want your decal to be applied.
Gently remove the backing by peeling the decal away from a corner. If you’re having difficulty, a piece of scotch tape placed on the backing can help create a tab for you to grip and peel away the decal.
Carefully place the decal onto the desired surface. We recommend holding the decal upright with two hands near the top and placing only the top edge to the surface first, then use your hands to guide the decal on a little at a time. At this point only apply the decal lightly. If you need to reposition or adjust the decal you should be able to slowly and carefully peel the decal away from the body of the vehicle and reposition before the adhesive fully sets in.
Once the decal is in place, use a squeegee* to remove air bubbles and small pockets. When using the squeegee, start in the center of the decal and move in a straight line to the right and left side of the decal—then move up and down working out any pockets or bubbles. Continue this process until you have ran the squeegee over the entire decal. You’ll want to use some steady pressure with the squeegee to work out the pockets. You may place the back liner on top of your decal during this process to avoid damage to the decal. Once the squeegee process is complete, you will not be able to reposition your decal.
**Note: If you are installing an “inside glass” opaque car decal, use a wet installation method: Mix 3 drops of household dish soap to 1 gallon of water. Use a spray bottle to gently spray that solution onto the adhesive side (printed side for inside glass) of your decal as well as the application surface. Place the decal onto the surface and move it around while it is still “wet” to the desired position. Finally, use a squeegee to remove all bubbles and excess water. Dry to finish.

Taking Care of and Removing Your Opaque Vehicle Decal
Like all car and truck window decals, wash your opaque decal regularly to maintain appearance and longevity. Regular washing helps to prevent dirt and road grime build up. These decals are safe for most car washes. However, do not apply high pressure water for long periods of time to avoid having the decal start peeling. To remove the decal, simply peel back a corner using a razor blade and then pull the remaining decal away from the body or surface of your vehicle. You can also use the razor blade to remove any remaining adhesive residue. Be careful not to scratch the installation surface if sharp objects are used during removal.

Questions and Answers
The material we use for our vehicle decals is 3 mil white vinyl material this is not a type of air-release material. Unfortunately, we do not have an option for air-release materials for all of our vehicle decals.
No, you can order a single piece if that’s all you nee
Yes - we offer a number of different vehicle decals. Clear car decals offer transparency wherever they are not printed and can in some cases be used for car windows. Perforated car decals offer one way visibility regardless of what is printed on them. This latter option is the best solution for rear window graphics for vehicles. See our full offering of vehicle decals and graphics to see more options.
In most cases, they all refer to a semi-permanent use car decal that adheres to the vehicle body or window using an adhesive backing. Further, once positioned on the car or vehicle they cannot be removed and repositioned. While removal is easy, trying to put them in a different spot will not result in a good looking graphic. So while we use the term car decal, if you use the term sticker or graphic, we’ll understand what you are asking for.
The actual thickness of the car decals is 75 micrometers or .00295 inches. In other words, imagine the thickness of a sheet of printer paper and you have the thickness of our opaque decals. They are razor thin yet durable when placed on your car, truck, or other vehicle!
Over an extended period, the sun will impact any type of sign, including car decals. Nonetheless, we print with a UV ink that should keep your decal looking sharp for years to come.
There are several different shape options to choose from for your opaque vehicle decals, including Square/Rectangle, Rounded Corners (¼" or 1" radius), Circle/Oval, Custom or Custom with Border.
The Custom shape option (previously known, or sometimes referred to, as Contour Cut) allows you to either upload a custom shape to our design tool or have us create a custom shape for your sign based off your design.
The Custom with Border shape option (previously known, or sometimes referred to, as Halo Cut) is similar to the Custom shape option but will leave a small border around the edge of your design.
Individual letters are a separate product called vinyl lettering. If you are interested in vinyl lettering for your car or vehicle, please visit our car and truck lettering page for further details.
