What is a Transfer sticker?

A transfer sticker is created by cutting sticker material to a shape, graphic or text, and then removing the background. Transfer stickers are not printed on, but instead are cut from a colored sheet of vinyl. If you would like a sticker with multiple colors but no background you should order a Multi-Color Transfer Sticker.

All of our Transfer Stickers come with three elements. The first is the backing of the vinyl sheet. This is the paper layer that the vinyl is originally cut from. The second layer is the sticker itself, which is cut by our plotters to your exact design. Finally we add a top layer of transfer tape to allow you to place the sticker exactly where you want on your material.

Applying a Transfer Sticker

When you get your transfer sticker in the mail, just lift the sticker and peel the white paper backing off of the adhesive. Then while holding the clear transfer tape, line your transfer sticker with the material underneath and place on the surface. If you have any air bubbles in the sticker, gently rub from the middle to the edges until the sticker lies flat. For more see the Application Instructions Page or watch the video below:
