the stickers are about 6 inches long by around 4 tall. they will stick to anything such as laptops, cars, windows, most otterbox cases/pelican cases, water bottles, um...anything else people can think to stick them on. the vinyl is rated to last 5-6 years outdoors, so indoors/stuck on a laptop they will last a long time. installation is simple. you just peel off the sticker, apply to whatever, and rub down. you can use a credit card/squeegee to get all the bubbles out. if your not sure where you want to put it a little soapy water or glass cleaner you can move it around until its where you want it too.

I don't have individual pictures yet. As I am not finding a suitable background for all the colors except a wooden floor and I don't want them stuck to that.

I will ask the guy that makes these to post the best way to apply these. There is two waxy layers on these. It seems to me the best way is to pull the bottom protective layer away and use the top layer to press it down on to the item you are applying the sticker to them peal the top layer away.

Updated to put a link to where you can get these at.

Those look great! I am in for a few. Any idea on price and when they will be available for sale in the EDC Store?

[brix]

I like it! I'm in for a couple. Nice to see more EDCF stuff on the way!

[JonSidneyB]

I don't know if this is the best way but I am trying the shotgun approach between working on software :)

[solocanoe]

love the stickers, Jon. looking forward to availability.

[Nitewalker]

Awesome!!!

[copierguy_mobile]

Very cool!

I'm in for a few.

Any chance to get subdued colors like tan and OD?

[greyhound352]

Stickers look great, I'm down for a few.

[revs]

One would be great on my KLR.

[lazybusinessman]

im the one that is making the EDCF stickers, and im glad the response so far has been positive. i hope everyone is happy with them that orders them, they really did turn out awesome.

as far as colors....what would you guys like to see? i looked at all my sources where i order material and it looks like no one makes an OD green, or even anything similar to it. its ranges from just plain green to neon, to really dark. as far as tan goes...that might be do-able. if there is a big enough demand for a color that i dont have i can order it...but i dont like getting stuck with a color that will never move. done that in the past and luckily someone came in and took it all from me. as far as colors, its up to whatever you guys want....and whatever Jon decides to order. the stickers should hopefully be in his hands around thursday. they were mailed out this morning.

Thanks for checking on the colors. Black always works.

[JonSidneyB]

Each time I order I will get what ever colors you guys want and that he can provide.

[Gnarly]

As Synaptic Misfire said, Black always works! Would like a few.

By the way,S.M.: great screen name!

Thanks! Been my internet handle forever.

Jon, I am in for a few in black.

[dewildeman]

Black, tan, red, pink, purple with green poka-dots, whatever, I'm down for some!

[JonSidneyB]

Wow...I had no idea stickers would be popular. I think I am going to need to order another run :) This is fantastic

[lazybusinessman]

hooray!

[Sidetracker]

I'd like a couple, two or three. I'll be watching for their availability.

[kit]

Count me in for a couple, too.

[DB]

Yep! I think I need a new sticker for the vehicle. :) Can't go wrong with black/white stickers for a vehicle.

[apollo]

These look great.

[Cosmo7809]

Sign me up

[JonSidneyB]

I am pulling an all nigher....already pulled an all dayer.

I will have these on the store when you guys get up in the morning :)

[JonSidneyB]

I fell asleep. Bad Jon. I am going to try and figure out what kind of surface I need to photograph these on. With four colors it rules out a single color of poster board to take a picture.

Here is where you can find these at.

any chance you can get some made up in reverse ? I want to stick them on the inside of the windows of my vehicles to keep them out of the weather.

Wow, that is a great idea. I never would have thought about that.

I will ask and find out.

[lazybusinessman]

I can try some reverse ones but I dont think they will look as good as the ones now. The color on the back of the vinyl isnt very smooth like the front. Ill make a test one and see gow it works out. The stickers now can handle all the elements and are rated for 5-6 years outdoors.

Well, this can be a real cash cow for Jon. We have to buy new stickers every 5-6 years...consistant reliable income!!!

please forgive my ignorance but why would it be the back of the vinyl ? Can't you just do a mirror of the image itself or cut it out backwards or am I way off base here ?

not a problem. if your planning on sticking this inside of the window the image would have to be reversed....yes. so when you peel off the backing of the material to apply the sticker it the "sticky" side of the vinyl will be what you see when its pressed up against the glass.

oh ok,right :ty: ,guess I wasn't thinking

Even though it's not smooth is it still available in all the different colors you have or is the back like one generic color ?
I want to apply one to the back/side window of my pick-up truck but would much rather have it on the inside.

Vinyl is a solid color on both sides, the glue is on one side or the other. I have years of experience with vinyl, in fact I still have a cutter and a butt load of vinyl in my shop.

Graphics do not look as good if you put them inside, but at the same time, 10ft or more away you wont notice the roughness.

I pass a sign that I made 10yrs ago daily, still looks good, but not new. The vinyl will fade with time, but it depends on the color, deep colors hold up better (black, maroon, etc.) White never fades, it just looses its sheen, big deal.

Properly clean the area and get the bubbles out, pre heat the vinyl in the sun, and heat the area (sun or heatgun)

I used to make banners and signs in my parents business when I was a teen, while fun, people change their minds too much.

[lazybusinessman]

^ summed up everything right there. thanks for that.

yeah,thanks for the explanation.I'm just gonna take your guys word for it.

[brix]

placed my order today for a couple with some other stuff, thanks Jon!

[JonSidneyB]

Thanks :)

Got a question. What color background should I use when I try and take pictures of them if I want it to be a consistent background for all of them. Of course white, black, red, and blue are out as backgrounds.

[DaPro]

Try Silver

See if your sign guy will do a color chart, there is always scrap vinyl or see if he could get the color sample graphic from his distributor, make a chart

[JonSidneyB]

Good Idea,

I will see if I can find something.

[Leemann]

Nice I'm in for a few.

can you get any mirror chrome colors by any chance ? Something like chrome green maybe . . . thanks.

[lazybusinessman]

put them on something? i recently put a sticker i made on my kleen kanteen. applied great, and no issues with water sweat or anything. i just wouldnt recommend putting it in the dishwasher.

[lazybusinessman]

im pretty sure i can....but it just depends if jon wants to order enough of them. if i can buy a small amount, not a problem. but if i have to buy a whole roll i just dont want to get stuck with it for a few stickers. done that in the past and it didnt work out too well.

[Chief-Yeah]

No problem,I can understand that.Would it be better if it was regular silver/mirror chrome instead of green ?

[lazybusinessman]

that would be better yes. ive had some requests for chrome in the past. i have normal silver...just no chrome silver.

Each time I have to reorder I will try and add some more colors.

I still need to get individual pictures taken of these.

you the man Jon . . . knew I liked you :highfive:

[JonSidneyB]

It might be a little while. I have sold 6 of them so far.

Three to one person.

[greyhound352]

I will be buying 2 of them when Jon gets some other items in for me.

[acska83]

I may look into a few, as well. The design definitely will be a conversation starter, for those that don't quite understand.

[straightpuke]

I'm gonna buy one to put on my Pelican case!

[kenshomi]

super totally dig them
