  Window Decals

  Posted by OwenTaylor on 11 November 2008 at 19:21

  Evening all,

  I have been asked to produce 100 window decals that measure 6" x 24". It’s my first time producing window stickers. They are to be used in shop windows to advertise a certain product so they could be up for a few years. The design is very simple and is made up of large black and yellow text on a rectangular white background.

  I have a Roland versacamm and am wondering whats the best way to produce the stickers.

  1) Do i reverse print on clear, laminate with white then cut them out?

  2) Do I go down the cut vinyl route as its only 3 colours in total?

  I won’t be applying the stickers – is this a problem and should i provide fitting instructions?

  Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

  Thanks in advance, Owen

  best way in my opinion is to get them silk screened to static cling. Last ages and easy enough to apply. Worth asking for a quote, I use sovereign trade screen printing

  Thanks for the reply – I hadn’t really thought about static cling. Will this stand the test of time?

  I actually have a few meters of the stuff for my Roland somewhere. Would printing them with EcoSol Inks be a lot less durable than getting them screen printed? Does the printed part still stick to the glass?

  Thanks, Owen
