Vehicle Magnets are large Magnets designed to stick to vehicles with metal body panels. We direct print them in full color on one side of 30 mil white magnet stock. We also profile cut usually with rounded corners to increase longevity too. With customizable sizing ranging from 12″ x 6″ to 60″ x 24″, Vehicle Magnets can be tailored to fit your
vehicle.
These are a great solution for mobile vehicle advertising that can be easily removed or switched from one vehicle to another. It’s a smart way to create brand or product recognition around town without the commitment of full-time vehicle advertising. Don’t let space go to waste. They’re your vehicles; advertise on them.
Consider adding a QR code to your design to link directly to additional online information. This can be a great way to provide more detail than you would want to cram onto your Vehicle Magnets. Since a QR code can link to an online message, you can change the online message without the need to reprint the QR code.
Guidelines & Care
Storing Flexible Magnet When not using flexible magnetic sheet, keep it in a clean, dry place.
Preparing Magnetic-Receptive Surfaces Before affixing magnetic sheet to a metal surface, be sure all surface paints, clear coats and waxes are cured (hardened). Clean the metallic surface and the magnet with mild detergent. Wipe with a soft cloth or
allow to dry.
Applying Flexible Magnet
Before applying, test all inks and paints used on the magnet for adhesion and solvent compatibility. Affix to smooth, flat or gently curved metallic surfaces. Make sure the entire magnet is flat against the metal surface. Do not place over protrusions (molding, decals, pin striping, etc.) or concave areas. There must be NO air pockets.The magnet itself should be at a room temperature of 60 or above when installed to achieve best results. Do not apply magnet that has been curled with the magnet side out. The magnet may not attach properly to the metallic surface resulting in lifted corners or air gaps
which will weaken its holding strength. If you place the magnet in the wrong position, completely remove the magnet from the surface and reaffix. Lift at sides and not at corners to remove. Do not pull the magnet across the surface, or it may stretch due to the resistance caused by the high magnetic strength. Do NOT use on horizontal metal surfaces exposed to direct sunlight (such as automobile hoods), temperatures exceeding 160ºF or temperatures below -15ºF. Exposure to cold weather will make the magnet more brittle so use caution when handling.
Be aware that long-term use on surfaces frequently exposed to sunlight (such as vehicles) can result in uneven fading of the surface because the magnet-covered area is shielded from ultraviolet rays. Do NOT use on non-metallic body fillers, simulated wood grain siding and repainted surfaces. NOTE: Doors and panels on some vehicles are not made of steel. This product will not work on aluminum and plastic surfaces. We recommend rounded corners for magnetic vehicle signage.
Cleaning Flexible Magnet
To guard against moisture and dirt buildup between the magnet and the metal surface (particularly on outdoor applications), remove the magnet at regular intervals. Clean both the magnet and metal surface with mild detergent; wipe with a soft cloth or allow to air-dry. (For vehicle-mounted signs, remove and clean DAILY.) After waxing and polishing, allow 2 days for wax to cure before applying magnets
