Vinyl Decals

Vinyl Decals are Die Cut images on a sheet of vinyl ranging from one to many colors in many shapes and sizes. Die cutting is to cut with a plotter machine (Vinyl Cutter). A plotter has a small extremely sharp razor that cuts a decal out. The design is cut onto a thin vinyl material with a piece wax paper backing known as liner paper. Once the design has been cut, a vinyl cutting company will hand strip all the unwanted pieces of the decal which is called "weeding." The final design is covered with a protective application tape that is used to transfer the design onto the surface of your choice (ex. Windows, Vehicles, Signs, Walls, etc.)
Vinyl is a very versatile material that comes in primary colors like red, white, and blue all the way to specialty colors like 14k gold and carbon fiber. Vinyl material is very easy to work with and is easily cut to shape and perfect for advertisement or just plain fun.
In the past couple of years, Vinyl Decals have become very popular making signs more affordable for companies and also people just wanting custom vinyl decals. The most popular uses for vinyl decals are window decals, vinyl banners, product signs, wall art, and business advertisement. In the below paragraphs we will discuss how what exactly each of these are how they are used and what they are good for.
