Full Color Printing from Sign Companies

4CP Printing

It used to be that sign companies produced full color printing for only the big corporations like Coca-Cola, IBM, or Xerox (back when they were still a dominant player). This technology was expensive unless it was done in huge volume, especially when companies printed larger format advertising media such as posters or banners or the like.

With the onset of digital press in the 1990’s, however, businesses were able to offer affordable 4CP or 4-color process printing – to smaller corporations and companies. Today, most are able to offer to even Mom & Pop businesses.

What is 4CP/4-color Process?

Full Color Printing of Vinyl Decal Stickers for Small Businesses

Vinyl Sticker Printing

I’ve mentioned in other posts that full color printing of banners, signs, and displays was once the sole domain of large corporations. Because you needed large volumes to be cost-effective, these print media were mainly produced by offset printers or screen printers.

This article explores how all that has changed, including pressing of vinyl decal stickers. Print method on various advertising media including vinyl decal stickers went digital in the 1990’s and has changed the look of business since.

The Need for Car Window Stickers, Labels, and Decals

car window decals

That’s a pretty strong statement I made in the title, saying that people need car stickers and decals, isn’t it?

Now, just so you know, although I am the V.P. of sales and marketing for Visigraph, a company that prints these graphics, I personally don’t use them myself, so I understand people who don’t and I really don’t care if you do put them on your car or if you purchase them from me. Oh…I just remembered….my wife just put an “UPWARDS” decal on our van to support our son’s sports league. Doh!

Why People Need Car Decals Stickers and Labels on Their Vehicle Windows

Security Alarm Decals, Stickers, or Signs for Your Home/Business

Security signs

We’ve all been hit by it. That sinking feeling as you go into the garage to get something and notice the bikes are missing. You feel violated and wonder when they might come back.

A friend told me just this last weekend that their neighbor’s garage had been broken into and the meat stolen from the freezer. Some people are just barbarians! So, when this happens, many of us are tempted to plaster security alarm decals, but without actually putting in a security system. So how well does this work?

Not too well, at least if he’s a professional burglar.

Numerous retail stores are refusing to put an adhesive promotional decals on their store windows due to the likely trouble of taking off the sticky label when they decide to get rid of it or change it.

Decal Car Stickers for your Business, Organization, or Club

Car window decals

Well, I can’t really tell you when to purchase decal car stickers, can I. I’d tell you to do it now if I could, but you’ll have to decide when that might be, but I’ll give you a few ideas on when might be a good time to purchase them for whatever it is you support, or supports you.

They are a great way to advertise something you support or belong to. One from your school, for instance, shows that you support your school and are loyal to it. Your school, or your kid’s school, might have a sports team decal and you could put both on your car.

What Rear Window Decal Sticker Means to Americans

Rear Car Window Stickers

America has a love affair with the window decal sticker and almost every car you see has at least one graphic proclaiming that they went to Impressive State University or that there are 5 family members and a dog and a cat and a parrot, or the like.

I find it an interesting study that the this is used not only as a visual display, but as prolifically as it is. It might be a study in freedom of expression or the freedom we have in America to express ourselves or what we like or who we are voting for or who we love or who we hate.
