Sticker Application & Care Guide
Our custom stickers are printed on premium waterproof vinyl using durable eco-solvent inks, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor use when applied correctly.
Please read the guide below before applying your stickers for the best possible finish.
✅ Before Applying Your Sticker
For best results, apply your sticker to a clean, dry, smooth surface.
Stickers work best on surfaces such as glass, plastic, metal, smooth painted surfaces, packaging, phone cases, bottles, jars and containers.
If applying to valuable, delicate, painted or coated surfaces, we recommend testing on a small inconspicuous area first. Adhesive suitability can vary depending on the surface and finish.
Avoid applying stickers to rough or heavily textured areas, fabric, rubber, silicone, dirty or greasy materials, sharp curves, uneven shapes, or anything that may get very hot..
If you are unsure whether your stickers are suitable for a particular surface, please contact us before applying.
✋ How to Apply Your Sticker
1. Clean the surface – Wipe the area before applying your sticker. Make sure it is free from dust, grease, oil and moisture.
2. Allow the surface to dry fully – Stickers may not bond properly to damp or recently cleaned surfaces.
3. Peel from the backing – Carefully peel the sticker away from the backing paper, avoiding touching the adhesive side where possible.
4. Position carefully – Place the sticker gently onto the surface. Once pressed down, it may not be possible to reposition it without affecting the adhesive.
5. Press from the centre outwards – Smooth the sticker down from the middle towards the edges to help remove air bubbles.
6. Use a flat-edged tool if needed – A vinyl squeegee, bank card, or similar flat-edged tool can help achieve a smoother finish.
7. Allow time to bond – For best results, leave the sticker for around 24 hours before washing, heavy handling, or outdoor exposure.
↪️ Applying to Curved Surfaces
Our stickers are best suited to flat or gently curved surfaces.
They may not apply well to sharp curves, tight corners, ridges, flexible materials, or unusual shapes.
On curved items such as bottles, jars or cups, apply slowly and press firmly from the centre outwards.
Avoid stretching or forcing the sticker around a curve, as this may cause lifting around the edges.
💧 Waterproof & Outdoor Use
Our stickers are printed with eco-solvent inks on waterproof vinyl, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
They are waterproof and weather-resistant, but their lifespan can vary depending on the surface, placement and level of wear.
For longest life, avoid heavy abrasion, scratching, harsh chemicals, pressure washing, dishwashers, prolonged extreme heat, and constant rubbing or handling.
🥤 Bottles, Cups & Containers
Stickers can be applied to bottles, cups, jars and similar items, provided the surface is smooth, clean and dry.
For best results, hand wash gently only.
Avoid soaking for long periods, scrubbing directly over the sticker, or placing decorated items in the dishwasher.
Although the vinyl is waterproof, dishwashers, heat and strong detergents can reduce the life of the adhesive and print.
📦 Storage Instructions
If you are not using your stickers straight away, store them flat in a cool, dry place.
Keep unused stickers away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.
Avoid bending, folding, or storing stickers in high humidity, as this may affect the backing paper or adhesive.
⚠️ Safety Information
