Which Type of Vinyl Decal Do I Need?
Cut vinyl works best when your design can be produced as individual solid-color letters, numbers, logos or shapes.
Printed Sticker or Cut Vinyl?
If your design contains photographs, gradients or many colors, you probably want a printed sticker.
If you want clean letters, numbers or a solid-color logo with no background around the graphic, cut vinyl is usually the better choice.
Cut Vinyl Decals vs. Printed Stickers
Customers often use the words sticker and decal interchangeably, but these products are produced differently.

Don't Worry About Your Artwork
Not sure whether your logo or lettering can be made into a cut vinyl decal?
Send us what you have.
Vector artwork is ideal for CAD-cut vinyl because every letter and shape needs a clean cut path. We regularly work with Illustrator, EPS, PDF and other vector artwork.
If you only have a JPG, PNG or other image, send us the highest-quality version available. Our team can review it and let you know what is needed before production.
Very fine lines, tiny text and extremely intricate details may need to be simplified so the decal can be cut, weeded and installed reliably.
If you're starting without finished artwork, contact us to discuss available design assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Vinyl Decals
What is a CAD-cut vinyl decal?
A CAD-cut decal is made by precision cutting letters, numbers or shapes directly from solid-color adhesive vinyl. The excess vinyl is removed, leaving only the finished graphic.
Is cut vinyl the same as a printed sticker?
No. Cut vinyl uses the actual color of the vinyl and does not have a printed background. Printed stickers are better for photographs, gradients and designs containing many colors.
Do cut vinyl decals have a clear background?
No background material remains around traditional cut lettering. The transfer tape holds the individual letters or graphic elements together during installation and is removed afterward.
Can you cut my logo from vinyl?
Many logos can be produced as cut vinyl, especially simple solid-color designs. Very intricate artwork, gradients or photographic elements may be better suited to a printed decal.
Can vinyl decals be used on vehicles?
Yes. Applicable high-performance vinyl products are designed for smooth automotive surfaces and are commonly used for business lettering, logos, fleet identification and regulatory markings.
Do you make TCP decals?
Yes. Cutting Edge Signs & Graphics offers a dedicated CAD-cut decal product for TCP and commercial fleet identification requirements.
How long does cut vinyl last?
Durability depends on the vinyl, surface preparation, installation and exposure. Current applicable products using our 2.5 mil high-performance calendared vinyl list ratings up to approximately six years.
Does the decal come with transfer tape?
Yes. Applicable CAD-cut lettering products are supplied with transfer tape to maintain the alignment and spacing of individual graphic elements during installation.
What surfaces can I apply vinyl decals to?
Cut vinyl works best on clean, smooth, compatible surfaces such as glass, painted metal, vehicle surfaces and many rigid sign materials. Rough, porous or heavily textured surfaces may not provide reliable adhesion.
Can you make custom sizes?
Yes. Standard products cover a range of sizes, and larger or unusual lettering projects can be quoted separately.
What artwork should I provide?
Vector artwork is strongly preferred for cut vinyl. Illustrator, EPS and print-ready vector PDF files typically provide the cleanest paths for production.
What if I don't have vector artwork?
Send us the best file you have. Our team can review it and determine whether it can be converted or needs to be recreated before cutting.
Can I install the decal myself?
Many smaller CAD-cut decals can be self-installed using the supplied transfer tape. Larger or more complex lettering may benefit from professional installation.
Can I pick up my decals locally?
Yes. Local pickup is available from Cutting Edge Signs & Graphics in Laguna Hills, California.
Do you ship custom vinyl decals?
Yes. Many standard decal products can be shipped throughout the United States and ordered online through CEPrints.com.
