Adhesive Clear Window Vinyl Printing
Clear Permanent Adhesive Vinyl with Matte Finish
Adhesive clear vinyl printing transforms transparent surfaces with vibrant, durable graphics on a 4mil clear PVC film. Designed for both indoor and outdoor applications, this material features a clear permanent adhesive backing that bonds securely to clean, flat, and smooth surfaces like glass windows or other transparent substrates. Waterproof and UV-resistant, the vinyl ensures long-lasting clarity and vibrancy, maintaining its quality for years even in harsh weather conditions.
This ultra-clear vinyl is ideal for creating eye-catching window graphics, retail displays, or decorative signage, allowing businesses to showcase branding or promotions while preserving natural light and visibility. Perfect for applications where a sleek, transparent look is desired, it adheres permanently to surfaces for a professional finish, enhancing aesthetics without obstructing views.
We do not print white ink. All white colors will appear as clear.
Note: Printed colors may appear slightly less vivid or transparent due to the clear vinyl material, and minor color variations may occur, as color matching is not guaranteed. Double-layered prints may initially appear much darker than the provided artwork, but colors will align more closely once the backing is removed and the vinyl is applied. The material is not 100% transparent and may retain slight visibility when adhered to clear surfaces. Once applied, the vinyl cannot be removed and reapplied, ensuring a permanent bond. For best results, apply to clean, flat, and smooth surfaces.
Vinyl is printed on a single sheet of adhesive material and is not cut into custom shapes. For example, a 24x36 inch order means the design will be printed on one full 24x36 inch sheet without individual cutouts.
Can I remove and reposition the decals?
No, once the decals are applied, they cannot be removed and repositioned. The clear permanent adhesive forms a strong bond with the surface, ensuring a lasting application but preventing repositioning.
Can you cut the vinyl into custom shapes?
No, our vinyl is printed on a single sheet of adhesive material and is not cut into custom shapes. For example, a 24x36 inch order will be one complete 24x36 inch sheet with your design, without individual cutouts.
The size I need isn’t listed?
Select the next available size up and trim it to your desired dimensions using standard cutting tools for a precise fit.
Can I print multiple designs on one sheet?
Yes. Arrange your smaller designs together in a single artboard at your chosen size. The designs will be printed as one full sheet of vinyl, and you can trim each design to size once received
Looking for a size larger than what’s listed?
Order multiple sheets and align them together during installation to create a larger display.
Where can I install the vinyl?
The clear adhesive vinyl is designed for clean, flat, and smooth transparent surfaces, such as glass windows, acrylic panels, or other smooth, non-porous substrates. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, performing well in various weather conditions due to its waterproof and UV-resistant properties.
What is the size tolerance for large format prints?
Large format prints are produced using media rolls and hand trimming. Due to heating, drying, roll advancement, and manual cutting, a small margin of error in the final dimensions can occur. The industry standard cutting tolerance for large format printing is up to 1/4 inch (0.25"), and in some cases slightly larger depending on the product. For projects that require a perfect fit, it is recommended to order at least one inch larger on each side, then trim the material after installation for precise results.
What are the best uses for clear vinyl?
This vinyl is ideal for window graphics, retail displays, decorative signage, or promotional decals on transparent surfaces. It enhances branding or advertising while allowing natural light to pass through, making it perfect for storefronts, office windows, or vehicle graphics where a transparent, professional look is desired.
What are single and double layer colors?
Single-layer print (daytime use): A single layer of ink produces clear, transparent graphics optimized for daytime use, allowing light to pass through for a clean, illuminated effect on windows or transparent surfaces.
Double-layer print (nighttime use): Two layers of ink enhance color opacity and depth, ideal for nighttime applications where interior lighting may reduce clarity of single-layer prints, ensuring bold graphics after dark.
Can this vinyl be used for backlit electrical signs?
No, this clear adhesive vinyl is not intended for electrical signs with backlighting, as it is not designed to diffuse light evenly. For backlit applications, translucent vinyl, a different material, is recommended to achieve proper light transmission and visibility.
How is the vinyl shipped?
Vinyl is rolled and shipped in a sturdy mailing tube or box to prevent creases or damage.
