What are Pro-cut vinyl stickers?

Pro-cut vinyl stickers or decals consist of lettering or graphics that are individually cut and are applied to surface with the help of masking tape. These types of stickers are also commonly referred to as ‘cut vinyl’ or ‘vinyl lettering’.

How do Pro-cut vinyl decals differ from die-cut stickers?

Die-cut stickers are regular stickers that are printed on an opaque or transparent background and are cut to a custom shape. On the other hand, pro-cut vinyl decals consist of lettering or graphics that are individually cut and do not have any background material keeping them together.

What are ‘picks’ and how do they affect the price?

Areas around the individually cut letters and graphics that need to be removed are called picks. A design that requires removal of a large number of picks will generally cost more to produce.

What is masking tape used for in the production and application of pro-cut vinyl stickers?

Masking tape is used to help the individual cut letters and graphics stay together during the process of applying the pro-cut stickers. Masking tape is a pressure sensitive tape that helps in transferring letters or graphics from the release liner to your desired surface. Masking tape is also sometimes referred to as the application sheet.

How do I apply my pro-cut vinyl stickers?

For optimal application, please follow the steps below:

Please clean your window or desired surface thoroughly.
Your pro-cut decals come with your desired graphics sandwiched between the masking tape and the release liner. Carefully peel the release liner off the masking tape so that your letters and graphics are left behind on the masking tape.
Apply the masking tape to your desired surface.
With the help of a plastic squeegee or a credit card, firmly press along the surface of the masking tape.
Peel the masking tape off gently at a slanted angle. If you find your graphics coming off the target surface, please stop and press the masking tape back on. Try peeling off again at a more aggressive angle.
