Getting the best stickers for your promotional vehicles

You have a business and promoting it’s all about it. More so if you have vehicles to visit your clients, that’s when having a printout on them becomes not just necessary but a must. So, what to do about? First and foremost you need to come up with a design that has at least the following:

a. Phone number
b. Website
c. Address
d. Cool eye-catching images
e. Logo

Once you have that, you can contact a printing services provider that has the necessary experience to not just print the stickers but also to advise you on materials and adhesives. Remember, this is a critical part as, depending on the weather in your region, specific paper, inks and adhesives must be used.

Let us elaborate here for a moment. When it comes to custom printing weather plays a very important role as not all materials (paper, ink and adhesive in the case of stickers) react differently to different environments.

For instance, an adhesive that will keep its bond on low temperatures might simply crack on high temperatures, same as ink and papers, therefore, the printing company you pick must be able not just to know this but also to advise you on it.

Once that is done you can provide them with your design and all the necessary elements (image, pantone codes, etc.) and then they’ll proceed to print it out. Most probably they’ll also place it on the car, though it’ll be a good idea to ask them beforehand.

Also remember that once the sticker is applied on the vehicle you must wait sometime before you can move it, this is to give time to the adhesive to bond to a 100% and also to avoid peelings of any kind.

Have you used vehicle stickers? Please share your experiences with us. Until next time!!
