Reflective Decal Cut Options

Die-Cut

When we say we are die-cutting, we mean that we are slicing both the vinyl decal material and the paper backing. This type of cut removes all surrounding material from the decal. Consider it from a different perspective by comparing it to a "cookie cutter." You have individually cut decals without any paper material surrounding the design because each one is cut out to the contour of your design.

 

 

Kiss-Cut

Kiss-cut refers to the process where we only cut through the vinyl layer (the "decal material") and not the paper backing, leaving a border of paper material around your decal. A kiss-cut decal will have extra material around it for simple peeling if you choose that option.

 

 

Transfer-Cut

 

Using the transfer cut option, we will cut the reflective vinyl decal material to the desired form, image, or text and then "pick" or remove any extra or undesired vinyl material from your design so that your decal has no vinyl backing. The final step is to cover the leftover vinyl with a transfer tape. After you take off the paper backing from your decal, this tape is what will keep all the separate cut elements of your decal design together. Also, it enables you to neatly and evenly apply numerous separate pieces of vinyl decal material to the specified surface.

 

* Vector File (EPS or Ai – Adobe Illustrator) format needed for Transfer Cut decals. *

Transfer Cut / Pick Charge

Transfer cut price includes 6 standard picks with a maximum of 25 picks per sq. foot.

 

Additional picks are $0.04 per pick depending on difficulty/intricacy.

 

Intricately cut decals will be custom quoted based on difficulty and time required to pick.

Artwork Requirements

Files that print best are:

• .eps
• .pdf

• Artwork within the file can be flattened/rasterized, but a vector file is required to have the cut path indicated by a vector stroke line.

We can also print 300 dpi or higher resolution files:

• .tif
• .jpg
• .png
• .psd*

File requirements 

• Set up to file to the size you’re ordering the product as. 
• Cut line is indicated with a vector stroke line. Pink is the preferred color.
• All decal files require a minimum of 1/16" bleed. 
• Convert all text to outlines.
• Make sure no elements are selected for "Overprint"
• *We recommend choosing rich black (100-100-100-100) over CMYK (0-0-0-100). Rich black is true black — it has a less charcoal gray appearance *

We print in four color CMYK or six color CMYKLcLm. Please keep this in mind when submitting files for printing as color tone shifting may happen if file is submitted in RGB format. If there is a specific PMS color you need, please specify that to us when submitting your order so we can help you verify that the proper color mix is used (vector artwork only).

Customer supplied files are printed as they are received so we cannot guarantee color, clarity or final output as we are just printing the supplied files and have not set them up for printing.

If you are concerned about the file output we will be happy to do a test print for a nominal fee prior to final order if requested.

All our printers are calibrated daily to International Color Consortium (ICC) coloring profile standards to ensure accurate color production.
