To protect your vehicle, remove and reapply your magnet every 2-3 days. Clean the back of the magnet and surface weekly with a damp cloth and mild detergent.

Get noticed

Outfit your vehicles with personalized car magnets for quick and effective on-the-go marketing. Durable and weather-resistant, our magnetic car signs can get your business name and logo noticed by pedestrians and other drivers – and can help you make a strong first impression. Our PVC-free vehicle magnets can also help create a consistent, branded look across multiple trucks, cars or vans.

Before installing

Car magnets are a great option if you’re looking for a custom size and shape for your car. Before getting started, you’ll want to see if your car is compatible with our magnets by placing a small refrigerator magnet on it. If it sticks, you’re good to go. If not, take a look at our car door decals – which are made with a long-lasting adhesive. Most car doors are made out of a metal material like steel, which works great with our vehicle magnets. But some newer car doors are made with smaller amounts of metal, which magnets won’t stick to. Note: Follow the care and usage tips in the FAQ section to avoid damaging your vehicle.

Intuitive design process

Ready to start? First, choose from one of 2 standard car magnet shapes and 12 standard sizes or even custom create your own size and shape. Then explore our gallery of fully customizable design templates with industry-specific options. (Or, if you have a design ready to go, use our design upload option.) Once you’ve found a design you you like, make it yours by adding your custom details and choosing the options that work best for you. We’ll use fade-resistant UV ink printing to add your design to the matte surface of your magnetic car sign – and the finished product will be ready to stand out wherever the road takes you.

What Makes it Better

PVC-Free: PVC-free products are an exciting and increasingly popular alternative to products made from traditional plastics, many of which have significant environmental impact. A product labeled PVC-free is made without polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a synthetic plastic that's hazardous to both humans and the environment. PVC-free materials are typically just as durable as their more well-known counterparts.

Magnets wouldn’t stay on
Apr 9, 2026 | Jake u. |
Verified Buyer
I purchased these magnets and they stayed on my truck for about three days. I followed the directions put in the box and clean underneath them every day and the next thing you know I’m done driving and they’re both gone.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for reaching out. We're so sorry to hear that your car magnets didn't stay on and were lost while you were driving, especially after you followed the care instructions so carefully. To help clarify why this might have happened, please note that like all magnets, our car magnets stick to ferromagnetic metals, including iron, steel, nickel, and cobalt. They will not stick to aluminum, fiberglass, wood, or plastic. Many modern vehicles use aluminum or composite materials in their body panels, which would prevent the magnet from creating a secure bond. Could you please respond to this email and confirm the make and model of your vehicle? This will allow us to check its compatibility and see how we can best assist you with a resolution. We look forward to hearing from you.

Make sure before you place order.

Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are glad to hear that your magnets arrived with great detail and looked exactly as they appeared in the preview. It is indeed highly recommended to double-check the product specifications and dimensions, as well as the design preview, before placing an order. This ensures that any necessary adjustments—such as enlarging logos or other fine details—can be made so the final print perfectly meets your needs and expectations. Thank you for providing such a helpful tip for other customers.

Good quality material and great contact with a metal vehicle, however, the edges of the covering come loose very easily from the magnet.

Frequently asked questions

Like all magnets, our car magnets stick to ferromagnetic metals, including iron, steel, nickel and cobalt. They will not stick to aluminum, fiberglass, wood or plastic. You can test what part of your car is magnet-compatible by sticking a refrigerator magnet on it. If the refrigerator magnet doesn’t stick, try our car door decals – which are made with a long-lasting adhesive.

Each car door sign is made of 0.85 mm thick PVC-free vinyl with a magnetic strength of 90 lbs. per square foot.

With proper care and use, custom car magnets can be used for about 2 years. At that point, we recommend replacing your magnet to prevent it from falling off your vehicle when you drive. See FAQs below for more maintenance tips.

We recommend creating an advertising magnet in a different (yet complementary) color. This helps your magnet stand out and is the easiest way to create a consistent look across multiple vehicles of differing colors. Just make sure you keep your messaging and design simple and clear.

No, you’ll want to wait for your paint (or clear coat/wax job) to cure. The recommended wait time is 90 days for a new coat of paint, 60 days for a clear coat and 7 days for a wax.

With proper application, your magnet should stay in place for up to two years. We recommend the following application method:

1. Clean: Clean the vehicle surface and magnetic back with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
2. Dry: Let both your vehicle surface and your car magnet air dry completely.
3. Apply: Apply the magnet to a flat, metallic surface without bumps, curves or rust.
4. Maintain: To avoid damage to your vehicle, we recommend removing and reapplying your car magnet every 2-3 days. Clean the back of your car sign and vehicle surface weekly with a damp cloth and mild detergent.

You’ll know the magnet is properly installed if it adheres to the surface, if there are no air bubbles between the magnet and the vehicle surface, and if the magnet (including the corners) is flat against the surface.

We recommend removing and reapplying your magnet every 2-3 days. Leaving the sign on for long periods may cause damage to your vehicle’s paint. Clean the back of your car sign and vehicle surface weekly with a damp cloth and mild detergent. This will protect your vehicle and magnet against debris and build up.

Following these tips will extend the life of your magnet and protect the surface to which it’s applied. Failure to do so can result in permanent damage to the vehicle and magnet.

1. Remove your magnet before any professional car washes or power washing

2. Do not use your vehicle magnet in extreme weather conditions

3. Remove and reapply your car magnet every 2-3 days

Note: Applying any material to a painted surface without following these application, care and usage instructions may result in damage to the surface. (See our terms and conditions for more information.)

We recommend not using the magnet during extreme weather conditions (temperatures exceeding 160° F or below -15° F).

Yes. We recommend removing it before any professional car washes or power washing to avoid damage to the vehicle surface.

Our PVC-free material option is made of durable, weather-resistant polyester. While this polyester is just as durable (designed for up to 2 years of use), it does not include the traditional plastic used in vinyl banners.

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

  1. Avoid small, floating elements
  2. Avoid very fine lines and detail
  3. Keep edges smooth and simple
  4. Upload high-resolution artwork
  5. Keep important text or parts of your design away from the safety lines laid out in the design tool
