Terrible!

Feb 1, 2026 | Lana

It says door decal but directions give you instructions for glass window decal, we tried the water method on one side and dry on another… impossible to get the air bubbles out! We even watched YouTube videos for help, nothing worked! It’s NOT very transparent and very obvious it’s a bad sticker! Very disappointing in the quality and the way it is advertised on Vistaprints website.

The full instructions worked well, be sure to spray some soapy water with a little bit of dishwashing soap. The peel came off without too much issue and the squeegee worked well in getting the bubbles out. Seems like pretty good quality side door decals.

Very satisfied with the work, I received help with customization, the service was fast, and delivery was on time. I've been a customer for a long time and I don't intend to change.

No more guesswork. We take care of the entire design process, from brainstorming ideas to delivering the files to your account.

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.

Yes

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.
