See below for our top uses for window stickers.
Special offers
As our window stickers are easy to remove, they are perfect for displaying limited time offers and promotions. Simply put up the sticker during your promotion and then peel it off when its no longer needed. Our premium window adhesive means none of that nasty residue it left behind on your clean windows!
Opening times
It’s very important that your customers know when you open and close. This can help with future visitors as even when you are closed potential customers can see when to visit again. White text printed on clear stickers works very well for opening time displays.
Branding
We see an empty window as an empty billboard. Use your shop front as another way of raising brand awareness to the masses! We can print any colours including white ink so your logo will always stand out.
Contact Details
Every independent shop should have clear contact details stuck to the windows. This will encourage passers by to get in touch to find out more about your product/service. Having a website is also just as important, especially if you have an online store where products can be purchased, or bookings can be made.
Decorations
Window stickers don’t always have to include text. They can be used to add more depth to your shop front displays and re-in force your service or products. Use our design service option and the gizmo design team will create the perfect decorations for your shop windows.
QR codes
Quick read codes can be used in many ways on window stickers. You could have codes leading to your website, social media channels or even to help with limited time promotions. The main benefits of having a QR code on your shop front is that they take up less space and can direct potential customers to specific pages.
Social Media
Social media is so important for small businesses. It gives you another way of pushing your company out to the masses and keeping them up to date on what’s new. Having the top platform icons on your shops window will encourage people to look for you online and hopefully interact with you.
Step 1 – Surface Preparation
The first step is to ensure the surface the stickers are going to be applied to is suitable. Our window stickers are designed to be used on glass and other materials such as perspex and other smooth plastics. The area needs to be as clean as possible and not include any dirt, dust, smudges or other debris. The best method of preparing glass for a window sticker is to first clean the area with glass cleaner then wipe away the water with a clean micro-fibre cloth (preferably one that has been machine washed to avoid excess lint) or a squeegee. A clean dry lint free cloth should then be used to mop up any remaining residue or marks. Its imperative that the surface is fully dry and clean before the sticker is applied. Window Stickers won’t adhere properly or look as good if the surface is dirty.
Step 2 - Peeling
Before you peel the sticker ensure your hands are clean and dry. Dirt and grease can get stuck to the window sticker. When ready slowly and gently peel the window sticker from the backing sheet while trying not to touch the sticky side multiple times. If the sticker is large, it may be easier to have two people during this step. One peeling it away and the other ensuring the window sticker doesn’t fold over and get stuck to itself.
Step 3 – Applying
Once the sticker has been peeled off the backing paper you are ready to stick it to the window. Gently stick down one edge of the sticker. For simple shapes like circles and squares we recommend working from one side to the other – left to right. For more intricate custom shapes it may be more effective to first apply a corner. Use a rubber squeegee to push out any bubbles and gently apply the sticker always in the same direction. Never use a sharp object like a credit card to apply a window sticker as this could potentially scratch it. A card wrapped in a cloth is another option. If the window sticker is large then its recommended to have 2 people apply it. One person should be pushing out the air bubbles while the other should be holding the rest of the sticker away from the surface. The trick to this step is patience!
Step 4 – Checking
After the entire window sticker is applied to the glass its now time to look for any air bubbles that where missed. Any large air pockets near the edge of the window sticker can simply be pushed out with a squeegee. If you come across any air pockets that won’t move then its best to lift the sticker from the edge and re-apply that section. If you aren’t happy with the overall finish, we recommend peeling off the entire window sticker and starting again. Its better to do this then potentially damaging the sticker while trying to remove bubbles. The main benefit of our window stickers is that they have a low-tac adhesive which makes them easy to peel and re-position.
