There are some key differences between vinyl lettering and clear window decals that are important to understand as you choose what will work best.
Printed vs Cut out
Lettering is designed and cut from a solid color sheet of vinyl so you can only use one color in your design. For basic printed text (such as store hours) this might work, but to really capture the attention of people as they pass by your retail store or office, vinyl lettering doesn’t really stand out.
Vinyl window decals are printed onto a clear sheet of vinyl so you can use a full spectrum of colors and graphics. Your final design will pop from your store window or wherever else you choose to display it. We print them using a specialized process with a white ink layer at the bottom, followed by color printing that will make the logo and text stand out even more.
The areas that are not part of your design will still have clear vinyl, so it’s important to use designs with a transparent background (not white).

Use Clear Window Decals Indoors Too
In addition to outdoor advertising for retail stores, vinyl window decals can also be added to interior glass. They are easy to install and work great for:
- Décor – the right custom window decals can add visual interest to large windows and glass walls.
- Inspiration – design custom window decals with company mission, vision, and values and add them to glass surfaces throughout your office to inspire employees and clients.
- Wayfinding – create clear vinyl window decals to help people find specific conference rooms, breakrooms, or individual offices inside your building.
