Car stickers are a great way to decorate your car. Available in the choicest colors and styles, these stickers can be used to reflect your personality. Designs range from attractive shapes depicting flowers, animals, and insects, to more complicated designs featuring landscape and tapestry patterns. Men tend to prefer macho images and sometimes even naughty figures. Many car decals simply carry messages instead of images. Car stickers, being very attractive, can also be applied to trucks, boats, bicycles, helmets and any other smooth surface. The popularity of car stickers can be judged by the fact that they are auctioned on many websites.
Good quality car stickers are made of vinyl. They usually contain adhesive on the bottom, below the design. Some car decals that have adhesive over the design part need to be affixed to the inside side of the car window. Certain non-adhesive stickers adhere to the surface with the help of static charge. These static stickers can be moved and placed on any surface without leaving unpleasant sticky marks. Recent versions of car decals are weather and UV resistant. Political parties and commercial companies make custom car decals for promotional purposes.
In addition to decorative purposes, car stickers are used for official work. Any new car or truck should have a Monroney decal in the window. This type of car decal contains the car’s information, such as its vehicle ID, make, model, retail price, and a detailed list of standard and optional equipment. This label also contains information such as engine and transmission specifications, warranty details, and fuel economy information. Monroney decals come in handy when selling an old vehicle. The tag acts as a historical record, containing a list of the original equipment that the vehicle contained. Monroney car decals are required for cars and SUVs. Failure to affix these stickers can result in a fine of $10,000 per vehicle for the dealer.
