A guide to vinyl lettering

Vinyl lettering can be a fantastic form of advertising for anything from business and shop fronts to vehicles.

That is because of its strength and durability, both factors that are slowly seeing it replace hand painted signage.

If you think this type of signage may fit your needs, read on to learn more.

What is it?

Vinyl lettering consists of block colour letters in various styles that are cut individually out of a vinyl roll.

Each letter is separate, but they are fixed to walls and other surfaces together to create logos or signs. This is done using transfer tape on one side and adhesive on the other.

Once in place, the lettering can be taken off, but it cannot be moved to a different position.

How it can be used

Vinyl lettering is among the most versatile options for creating retail or corporate signs.

The adhesive used will stick well to virtually any surface that is not porous and that is sufficiently flat. It is frequently chosen by retail outlets for their glass front windows, as well as for adding a company logo or sign to a business vehicle.

It is generally resistant to rain, but ‘reverse-cut’ vinyl letters that attach to windows from the inside are also available.

How it is applied

The easiest way to get a vinyl lettering sign added to your business premises, shop or vehicle is to contact a professional. This will guarantee a high quality and long-lasting finish.
