Love that I can make my own design. The product is excellent.

Not sticky enough on edges

May 4, 2026 | Susan S.

I applied these as directed on the twice cleaned surfaces of my car doors. Within a week I had dirt under the edges. Within 2 weeks the edges had lifted and were catching wind when I drove. Each decal ended up flapping in the wind until part of it tears off. Then, the adhesive remains on the door as a taunting reminder of its ineffectuality.

I am very pleased with the quality of my Business Cards, Truck Magnets and Yard signs. The design features made it very easy to make them how I wanted. The speed of the shipping was also impressive. I would recommend VistaPrint to anyone who is starting a business.

This product is one of the best door magnets I have bought. Rain shine or storm the magnets always stick and going down the road they don’t flop.

Frequently asked questions

First, wash your vehicle surface with mild soap and water, then let it dry. Then peel your decal off its backing and place it on your car door or side panel. Finally, start from the center of the decal and use a flat edge (like a credit card) to remove any bubbles.

With proper care and use, vehicle decals can be used for about 3 years. At that point, we strongly recommend replacing your decal, using heat to do so. See the following question for details.

If you’ve used your decal for more than 2 years, we recommend you heat the surface of your car with a hair dryer (not a heat gun) before you start to take the decal off. This will help the decal come off smoothly and reduce the risk of paint damage. Just heat the decal and the surface, pull from a corner and gently pull the decal off, using extra heat if needed. If you’ve used the decal for less than 2 years, using an oil-based adhesive remover should do the trick.

If you’ve chosen a white vinyl car door decal, you can take advantage of our full-color printing options – and we recommend that you choose a background in a different (yet complementary) color than your vehicle. Not only does this help your vehicle decal stand out, it’s the easiest way to create a consistent look across vehicles of different colors. Just be sure to keep your messaging and design simple and clear.

No, you’ll want to wait for the paint curing process to finish. This is also the case if you’ve added a new clear coat or wax to your car. The recommended wait time is 90 days for a new coat of paint, 60 days for a clear coat and 2 days for wax.

Transparent polyacrylate – a removable, pressure-sensitive adhesive.

The best answer for your decal may depend on your specific vehicle. If you’re working with a larger pickup truck, you can take advantage of the size of a side door. Vans can benefit from side panel decals and back door decals – especially if you often find yourself in heavy traffic.

To ensure the best quality for custom-shaped products, please follow these design guidelines:

The white material comes in at approximately 0.09 mm, while the clear material is even thinner at around 0.013 mm. Both materials are thin and flexible for easy application.
