How small or big can my window decal be?

We don’t suggest having etched glass stickers any small than 150mm x 150mm. The largest size we can make is 1.2m high by any length. But keep in mind a sticker this size might need professional fitting.

How do frosted window decals differ from clear or opaque window decals?

Frosted window decals bridge the gap between clear and opaque decals. Clear decals allow light to pass through them, while opaque decals don’t. Frosted decals allow some light and shadow through, making them ideal for privacy and decorative elements.

No, they are self-adhesive and peel right off. You might be left with some glue residue but cleaning solution and/or a razor blade is an easy way to remove it leaving a window as good as the day you instead of the sticker.

Frosted window lettering and stickers are used in both businesses and homes. They are popular for giving rooms additional privacy, preventing people from walking into windows and corporate branding.

Home uses include privacy in bathrooms or bedrooms or on a front door window as decoration.

Can stick it on the inside of my window and have the graphics visible from the outside?

This is often the best solution it protects you sticker from passers-by and the worts of the weather. The image is cut in reverse so the adhesive is on the front of the design.

Can the decal or lettering be used only on a glass surface?

They will work on any smooth clear surface so perspex in a partition would be fine.

Does installation require more than one person?

For smaller frosted decals, installation can be done with one person. For large decals, they can be installed with one person using the right technique. If you haven’t done it before having two people is handy.

How do I clean my sticker?

Wipe down the frosted sticker with a damp cloth.

Is it OK to wash my window with the decal or lettering fitted?

Take care so you don’t scratch the decal and don’t use power washers, Otherwise, it will be fine. Having the graphics reverse cut and installed on the inside obviously avoids any issues.
