Choosing the Right Type for Your Stickers

StickerApp offers a range of adhesive options to suit various surfaces and applications. From flat surfaces to more challenging environments, here's what you need to know about the types of adhesives we offer.

Our stickers adhere best to smooth, flat, and dry surfaces like glass, metal, and plastic. If you're applying stickers to curved objects, consider testing with a small batch to evaluate performance.

Adhesive Options:

Permanent Adhesive: Long-lasting and durable, perfect for applications that require the sticker to remain in place permanently.

Hi-Tack Adhesive: An even stronger bond for rough or challenging surfaces, ensuring the sticker stays put.

Low-Tack Adhesive: Designed for easy removal and repositioning without leaving any residue, ideal for temporary uses.

Removal Without Residue: Stickers with low-tack adhesive can be removed cleanly. For more stubborn stickers, applying heat (e.g., from a hairdryer) can make removal easier. Common household items can help clean any remaining residue.

Special Adhesive Needs:

Front Adhesive: Perfect for window stickers viewed from the opposite side.

Heavy-Duty Adhesive: For industrial use, offering extra strength for outdoor or high-demand applications.

Curved and Rounded Surfaces: For stickers applied to cylinders or rounded surfaces, testing is recommended. Stickers generally perform best on flat surfaces, but some flexibility may be achieved with heat or by selecting more pliable materials.

Epoxy Dome Stickers: These are best used on flat or slightly curved surfaces due to their stiffness. For rounded surfaces, consider more flexible materials.

Floor Stickers: These stickers are easy to remove, though removal ease may depend on how long they’ve been applied and the environmental conditions. Use heat if needed to aid removal.

Safe for Walls: Wall stickers use low-tack adhesive to prevent damage to walls, paint, or wallpaper during removal. However, testing is recommended if the wall is in poor condition.

Regular vs. Removable Adhesives: Regular vinyl stickers use a permanent adhesive for long-term adhesion, while removable stickers are ideal for temporary applications, allowing easy removal without residue.
