The following FAQs cover some of the most common inquiries about custom decals from Vinyl Disorder.

What is a decal?

Decals sold by Vinyl Disorder are all vector images die-cut into colored rolls - decals consist of a top layer of transfer tape, a vinyl middle layer and a wax-paper backing that comprises the bottom layer. The top layer of transfer tape enables you to grab the middle layer of vinyl and apply it to the hard surface of your choosing. Squeegee it down into place with firm and even pressure, take the transfer tape off, and you have a finished decal pressed into place.

Vinyl Disorder makes our decals with premium vinyl material that is rated for outdoor use in all weather conditions. These decals can be applied on just about any smooth, hard or rough surface. Each decal features a premium adhesive that is designed to last for years.

How is a decal different from a sticker?

Decals are prepared on special paper and then transferred onto a second surface. This adds an additional step to the application process compared to stickers, which require only peeling off the backing and sticking to your chosen surface. While it's slightly easier to apply stickers, decals tend to have more powerful adhesives.

Another difference between stickers and decals is in the designs. Typically, stickers have a broader shape while decals can have very intricate cuts (which is why we use a die cut process at Vinyl Disorder).

What custom art services are available at Vinyl Disorder?

Vinyl Disorder offers a choice of art services encompassing every step of the design and customization process for customers interested in personalized decals. When ordering your decals, you'll be able to select your colors, size and shape to meet your needs. You can base your decal off of an existing design or have our graphic design team come up with a sample based on what you have in mind (you'll get to sign off on any custom designs before they're printed). From start to finish, you'll have our team of experienced professionals giving you guidance and answers to your questions to ensure that you get the custom decal you want.

What quality should the image be?

Vinyl Disorder recommends that files submitted by customers for customized decal orders be in vector format. A vector image is one that is saved in a specific format so that the layers of the image can be modified. File types that fit this description include AI, EPS, and Vector PDF. High-resolution JPEGs may be accepted in some cases if you are sending an image. In any case, feel free to send us any type of image you have and we'll let you know what it will take to rework as a decal design.

Do custom decals cost more than stock decals?

The cost of our custom decals is determined by size. If you want to know how much your custom decals will cost, just send us your request. We'll come up with a quote so you can see if your decal fits your budget before you place an order. You can also use this quote to compare to your stock decal choices. While we do have a wide array of popular decal options, many customers prefer to come up with their own custom designs that are an exact match to their needs.

How can I place an order?

Vinyl Disorder provides assistance any time you place a custom decal order. If you want to supply the artwork, you can email support@vinyldisorder.com with the images. You may upload your own pre-designed logo or artwork, or you could trust the creative team at Vinyl Disorder to take care of the design process for you. We'll deliver a quote based on your custom design. If you'd like to order more of the same custom decal in the future, just ask for a repeat order and we'll send an invoice. No matter the size of the order, Vinyl Disorder will give your request the attention and care it deserves. Our custom decals are not mass produced, but Vinyl Disorder's turnaround time is fast.
