What are Removable Window Stickers and Decals Made of?

Removable window stickers and decals are typically made from an adhesive vinyl material that is specifically designed to adhere to glass surfaces. This material is known for its durability and versatility, as it can withstand outdoor elements such as sunlight, rain, and wind without fading or deteriorating too quickly. The vinyl used in these stickers and decals is also often printed with UV-resistant inks to prevent color fading from prolonged exposure to the sun. Also, these stickers are fabricated to be easily removable without leaving much, if any adhesive residue behind, making them a practical choice for those who like to change their window graphics frequently.

How are Removable Window Stickers Different from Standard Window Stickers?

Removable window stickers are different from standard window stickers in a few key ways. First, they are fabricated to be easily applied and removed without leaving any adhesive residue on the window surface. This makes them ideal for short-term promotions or seasonal decorations, as well as for those who like to change their window designs frequently. Also, they are typically made from vinyl (PVC) material that is durable and weather-resistant, allowing them to withstand outdoor elements, such as sunlight and rain, without fading or deteriorating.

On the other hand, standard window stickers are often more permanent, relying on a stronger adhesive that may leave sticky residue on the window/wall surface upon removal. They are often used for more long-term purposes, such as permanent branding or signage. Overall, the key difference between removable window stickers and standard window stickers lies in their adhesive properties and intended usage.

How to Apply Removable Window Stickers and Decals?

Two-faced window sticker

  1. Start by cleaning the window surface thoroughly. Use soap and water to remove any dirt, grime, or grease that may prevent the sticker from adhering properly. Dry the window surface completely.
  2. Measure the window surface and the sticker to ensure a proper fit. Mark the area where you want to apply the sticker with a light pencil mark or masking tape.
  3. Peel off the backing paper from the sticker. Be careful not to damage the sticker or allow it to fold over onto itself.
  4. Place the sticker onto the window surface, starting from the top and pressing down firmly. Use a soft cloth or squeegee to smooth out any air bubbles or wrinkles, working from the center outwards.
  5. Once the sticker is applied, step back and examine it for any imperfections or areas that may need smoothing. Make any necessary adjustments as needed.
  6. Repeat the process for any additional stickers or decals you wish to apply.

How to Remove Removable Window Stickers?

  1. Start by gently lifting an edge of the sticker using a fingernail or a plastic card.
  2. Once you have lifted an edge, slowly peel the sticker away from the window surface at a 90-degree angle. Avoid pulling too quickly or forcefully, as this may cause the sticker to tear or leave residue behind.
  3. If the sticker resists removal or leaves behind adhesive residue, you can use a mild adhesive remover or rubbing alcohol to complete the adhesive removal. Apply a small amount to a cloth or paper towel and gently rub the residue until it loosens.
  4. After the sticker and residue are removed, clean the window with a solution of soap and water to ensure a clean and clear surface.

Remember to always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for removing the specific type of removable window sticker you are dealing with.

How to Clean Removable Window Decals?

Double Sided Window StickerCleaning them is a straightforward process that can help preserve their appearance. Start by filling a bucket with warm water and adding a small amount of dish soap or vinegar. Dip a soft cloth into the solution and wring it out until it is damp but not dripping. Gently wipe the surface of the decal, taking care not to scrub too hard or use abrasive cleaners, which may damage the printing.

If the decal has become stained or discolored, you may need to use a mild abrasive cleaner, but be sure to test it on a small, inconspicuous area first to avoid causing damage. After cleaning, rinse the decal with clean water. Following these simple steps can help keep your removable window decals looking fresh and vibrant for longer.

Are Removable Window Stickers Reusable?

We do not recommend any more than one usage with any adhesive decal/label/sticker. If you want to move your stickers, electrostatic, static cling, or ultra-removable stickers work better. Attempting to reapply the easy-to-remove, then reuse this type of sticker, may cause it to lose its adhesive properties, resulting in it not sticking properly. If you are unsure about the reusability of your particular sticker, it is best to treat it as a one-time use item and purchase a new set for your next application.
