How to Install Vinyl Car, Van, and Truck Lettering

Our standard and custom vinyl car and truck lettering decals arrive to the customer with their designs precisely pre spaced onto transfer, ready for installation.

microfiber cloth wiping dirt away
Grab a microfiber cloth and wipe away any possible dirt or dust to ensure a smooth surface.
masking building construction vehicle lettering
Use the necessary measurements and ensure your vinyl lettering is appropriately positioned. Then place a strip of masking tape along the entire top of the graphics and the intended final location. However, if your custom vinyl decals design contains 3 or more colors, individual layers will be marked on opposite corners to ensure precise placement.
peeling away paper backing from building construction vehicle lettering
Grab the bottom edges, lightly pull the paper away from the secured edges, and peel the transfer paper from the backing revealing the vinyl adherent.
credit card to apply pressure on building construction vehicle lettering
Grab a squeegee, preferably; if not, a credit card will do, and begin placing your design slowly onto the surface while making sure no wrinkles appear; if so, lightly pull the vinyl from the surface and reset the design. When using the squeegee, it is best to press down in a top to bottom and left-to-right motion.
pressing out air bubbles from black building construction vehicle lettering
Ensure all air bubbles are absent from the design by pressing and dragging your squeegee from the center of your design and out.
removing transfer tape from the black building construction vehicle lettering
Slowly remove the install liner, starting at the top corner. When transferring the design, the original masking tape will also detach.

Is vinyl lettering for cars weather-resistant?

Vinyl decal lettering excels incredibly well when facing the elements. Vinyl lettering is responsible for labeling many outdoor items we interact with almost daily. Considering vinyl typically lasts 5-7 years outdoors, this is an incredibly cost effective and versatile product.

What are the storage guidelines for car lettering?

Keep unused vinyl lettering flat, in its original backing, away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight to preserve adhesive quality.

How do I care for my vehicle lettering?

Wash gently with mild soap and water. Avoid high-pressure washers or abrasive scrubbing that may lift or damage the vinyl.

How do I remove vinyl lettering from my vehicle when the time comes?

Removing decals from cars trucks, vans, or office building windows is all the same process. Below are step-by-step instructions on how to remove old decals from vehicles.
1. Start by cleaning the surrounding unwanted vinyl lettering with a cloth and wet rag.
2. Next, use a heat gun to head up the old vinyl lettering to disrupt the adherent bonding properties.
3. Begin to remove and peel away the unwanted decals.
4. Use isopropyl alcohol or a product like Goo Gone to remove the sticky residue that may be left behind. The longer a decal is left on trucks, cars, and vans, the more likely you'll have to use an abrasive product to remove the adherent bonding agent.
5. Now clean and dry off any wet liquid left behind.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until happy with the results.
