    Printed Waterproof Stickers are ideal for water-sports and the marine industry

    Posted by Harris Screen Print

    Printed Waterproof Stickers are ideal for water-sports and the marine industry

    It is essential that marine and water-sports industries order the right type of stickers for their needs.  There are a wide range of ways to manufacture stickers and different types of inks and materials.  Some production methods are not suitable for all weather, underwater or long-term use as they may be using water based inks or paper material.

    Harris Screen Print specialises in outdoor grade waterproof stickers that are ideal for applications where durability is essential.  These include surfboards, dive tanks, paddle boards, boats and dinghies. 

    The material used is permanent self-adhesive vinyl which is available in both white and clear.  For a different background colour we flood print the material prior to printing the design.  The vinyl material is glossy PVC, which comes on a silicone coated release paper.  This material requires special inks for screen printing which are solvent-based, so the design will not run or smudge.  

    We recommend applying the sticker to your outdoor equipment whilst it is clean, dry and free from dust at a temperature no lower than 10degreesc.  Ideally allow 48 hours for it to reach an adhesion suitable for underwater use.   

    The stickers can be subjected to temperatures -40degreeesc to +80degreesc.

    Surfaces to which the material will be applied must be thoroughly cleaned from dust, grease or any contamination which could affect the adhesion of the sticker.

    Freshly lacquered or painted surfaces should be allowed to dry for at least three weeks and to completely cure respectively. The compatibility of selected lacquers and paints should be tested by the user, prior to application of the sticker.

    Hi-tack permanent self-adhesive vinyl is also available, which can give high adhesion on irregular substrates, on polythene and polypropylene.    Ideal minimum temperature for application should be no lower than 5degreesc. 

    Our hi-tack stickers can be subjected to temperatures up to +100degreesc.

    If you are not sure if permanent self-adhesive or hi-tack self-adhesive is the right material for your needs, we can post out a sticker sample pack so you can trial some stickers prior to placing your order with us.

    Heinz get it right with catchy car rear window stickers

    Heinz get it right with catchy car rear window stickers

    We printed these car window stickers for Heinz with two designs.

    If you do not have your own artwork department or designer we know how hard it can be for customers ordering stickers for the first time to get inspiration for a good catchy sticker layout.  That is why Harris Screen Print are pleased to giving advice and guidance to first time customers.

    We can guide new customers through every step of the process, from selecting the right type of stickers for their needs, the right material, along with the right sticker size and shape.

    With our extensive experience and knowledge, we know a good sticker layout when we see one.  It is very easy for customers to over-complicate a sticker design. 

    All too often what looks good close up on a computer screen, does not have the same impact when viewed from a metre away when they are placed in a shop window, car window or a restaurant window.  We believe in keeping designs simple, clean and bold with your brand clearly prominent and we will happily give advice and guidance to ensure your sticker design has the maximum impact possible.  These Heinz car window stickers are a perfect example of simple is best – no need for fussy or full colour designs.

    We have made a huge effort to select a wide range of sticker shapes, colours and layouts on our website images which may help you draw inspiration.  We can also post out a sticker sample pack of recently printed stickers close to your specification so you can see what other clients have chosen as their sticker design.   You can also find lots of examples of our stickers on google-plus and pinterest.

    If you do not have your own design, we can prepare a visual for you (often at no extra charge) we just need your logo/image along with text and we can do the rest.

    Posted by Harris Screen Print

    Double Sided Car Window Stickers

    We screen print double sided car window stickers, so a design appears on both sides of the sticker. 

    The inward view is information for the driver of the vehicle, and the outward view has your brand advertising for people outside of the vehicle to see.   

    These are popular for garages where on the inside view you can have contact details, and blank boxes to write in when an MoT or Service is next due.

    We also digially print double sided window stickers for where detailed full colour designs are required.
