Stickers
Stickers in all shapes
Looking for a special sticker, look no further.
Which surfaces do stickers stick to best?
Flat, smooth, clean and dry surfaces, such as glass, metal, plastic and finished wood. For textured surfaces, Hi-tack Vinyl or Heavy Duty Stickers hold better. If you are unsure, test with a sample pack first.
Best surfaces for stickers
Our stickers stick best to flat, smooth and dry surfaces. That gives the strongest bond and keeps the sticker looking good longer.
Surfaces that work well
-
Glass
-
Metal
-
Plastic
-
Finished (painted or varnished) wood
Surfaces that need more care
-
Slightly textured surfaces or gentle curves. Hi-tack Vinyl and Heavy Duty Stickers use a stronger adhesive that holds better here, for example on hard hats or skateboards.
-
Very rough or porous surfaces, such as unfinished wood or brick, are hard for any adhesive. A primer or adhesion promoter can improve the bond.
Prepare the surface
Clean the surface so it is free of dust, oil and fingerprints, and let it dry fully before you apply the sticker. Humidity and temperature also affect the bond, so apply stickers indoors at room temperature when you can. Test on a small, hidden area first if you are unsure.
Not sure about your surface?
Order a sample pack and test the stickers before you place a larger order. See Design like a pro with our Sample Pack and surface preparation in the Dictionary.
