There are many different types of window decal products available. We have chosen to use the most versatile and durable product we could find to ensure our customers get the most of their custom window decal!

These decals will last many years either indoors or out. They are both easy to install and, at the same time, easy to remove whenever you want to update your look!

Custom window decals are perfect for dressing up wide blanks spaces of windows or glass, whether it be walls, windows, doors, or counters. These spaces often are the first thing customers see. So, adding customized designs to storefronts or windows makes it easy to catch the attention of passersby or post inviting signage. Custom window decals are able to fit a wide range of needs, so use your imagination!

We print custom window decals on the following materials:

  • Pressure-activated adhesive 
  • Long term use (more than 2 years)
  • Best for: Indoor and Outdoor use

Our custom window decals adhere best to glass, mirrors, metal, windows, and other non-porous surfaces. This includes fiberglass plastics, chrome, aluminum, and certain resins.

Typically these window decals are used on large windows, glass walls, or counters made from a suitable material.

Ideally, you should install the decal on the smoothest surface for optimal visual impact. Plus, when the underlying surface is textured you risk tearing the vinyl and weakening the adhesive. On the other hand, rivets or curves pose no problem for this type of adhesive vinyl.

If you have a question about whether your surface is suitable or not, give us a call directly so we can discuss your options.

Custom window decals often are designed for showcasing eye-catching designs on glass office walls or vast windowed storefronts.

So, our sizing options are virtually unlimited. Sheet sizes range from 6” to 48” wide and 6” to 96” high. We are always able to piece together pieces for a larger seamless design if need be. There are also ways to utilize empty space between designs to create unique and stylized window decals.

Remember, these custom window decals can also be cut in any shape you like. That includes curved edges, reverse cut, and any other die-cut designs.

So whether you need a small window decal of your logo on a door or a large mural-esque panel to ensure privacy, we can work with you to get you what you need in the size you desire.

Our team is available to deliver and install our custom window decals anywhere in Southern California, including San Diego, Orange County, and Los Angeles. For certain corporate and enterprise projects our team can also fly to your business. 

Because this high-quality vinyl must be installed seamlessly and smoothly for maximum impact, we recommend either professional installation or a thorough review of the installation process before you install it. This is particularly important for large projects. 

If you choose to install these decals yourself, for larger sized decals you may need an additional person to assist you. Decals with logos, typography, or die-cut features will come pre-spaced and pre-masked with a transfer tape for simple installation.

Our custom window decals are long-lasting, especially when used indoors.

For indoor applications, these decals often last for 3+ years. These decals are also perfect for outdoor usage. Typically, under normal outdoor conditions, they will last up to 3 years.

If you already know where your custom frosted glass decals will be displayed, let us know. We can provide you with an estimate of the average lifespan according to your specific situation.

Under normal conditions, on a flat, vertical, surface the vinyl is rated to last from 5-7 years.

We highly recommend lamination for long term projects, but short term displays will be fine without it.

Remember, you can easily remove your decals at any time with heat or chemicals. Follow product removal directions for the best results.

Proper care and cleaning can do a great deal to extend the life of your window advertising.

Never scrub the film and practice the utmost care to prevent scratching the film surface. Scratches will greatly affect the final look. Keep bushes, tree branches, and other types of items that could scratch away from the decal surface. Never use a power washer, brush, or scrubbing tool with rough edges on window clings as they may lift and damage the decals.

Always use mild, nonabrasive, nonsolvent products in cleaning your window decals. Most dirt and debris can be removed with a cloth soaked in soapy water.

If your window advertising is on a vehicle, take care to park the car in a shaded, covered area whenever possible. As a best practice, do not apply waxes or polishes on top of the decal.

Regular cleaning will help ensure that dirt and debris do not work their way into the edges of the clings and cause fraying.

The 3M vinyl has excellent resistance to water, however, it is not meant to be immersed in water. It is also resistant to mild alkalis, acids, and salt.
