- Can I spell any word?
- Most short words and names. You get the full alphabet once plus a second A, E, I, O, N, R, S and T, the letters words use most. For a long name or a word with many repeats, add a second kit or order the exact wording as custom lettering.
- Are the letters capitals?
- Yes, capitals in every style except Neon City, which uses its own lower-case letter shapes.
- How tall is each letter or number?
- The size you choose is the height of a capital letter, the way sign shops measure it. Widths vary by style; a wide style takes more room than a condensed one.
- What surfaces does it stick to?
- Smooth, clean, dry surfaces: painted metal, aluminium, glass, fibreglass, smooth plastic and painted wood. It will not hold well on rough brick, stucco, fabric or textured plastic.
- How do I put it on straight?
- Clean the surface with rubbing alcohol and let it dry. Run a strip of masking tape as a straight line, peel each character from its backing and press it on along the tape, then rub it down firmly and remove the tape.
- Can I apply it in the cold?
- Apply it when the surface is above 10 degrees Celsius. In winter, warm the surface first or apply indoors.
- What is the difference between gloss, matte, reflective and holographic?
- Gloss is shiny and bold, matte has no glare, reflective vinyl shines back brightly when headlights or a flashlight hit it at night, and holographic shifts colour as you move.
- Can I get a letter or number I need more of?
- Add a second kit to your cart, or order the exact wording you need, already spaced out, as custom vinyl lettering.
- Can I remove it later?
- Yes. Warm it with a hair dryer and peel it slowly. Any leftover adhesive comes off with rubbing alcohol.
- How much is shipping?
- Kits ship free with tracking anywhere in Canada, on their own or added to any other order. Shipping a kit to the United States is $14.99.
