Description

Clear, glossy, and built to last. These clear vinyl stickers are printed in full colour and cut to any shape you need. The gloss finish gives your design a sharp look while letting the surface underneath show through.

They’re waterproof, weatherproof, and stick well to smooth surfaces like glass, plastic, metal, and packaging. Perfect for branding on bottles, jars, or windows, anywhere you want the design to stand out without a white background.

We use high-quality clear vinyl, laminate it to protect the print, and cut it to your spec. Simple as that.

Artwork

First up, I’ll need your design. The better it’s set up, the better your stickers will come out.

Make sure your colours are set to CMYK, that’s the format printers use, and it helps keep things looking right when they come out the other end.

If you’re stuck or only have RGB or Pantone values, just send those over and I’ll tweak the file so it prints as close as possible.

Need a hand? Drop me a line at Jay@tackyandupsetting.com and I’ll sort you out.

Cut line

If you want a custom shape, please add a cut line to your artwork. Ideally, make it a vector line or pop it on a separate layer, and label it clearly so I know exactly where you want the sticker cut.

Not sure how to do that? No worries, we’ve got a quick video guide you can watch HERE.

Still stuck? Just drop me a message at Jay@tackyandupsetting.com, and I’ll help you out.

Extra designs

Your order includes up to 5 designs as standard. If you want specific quantities for each (e.g. 300 of one, 200 of another), just let me know in the customer notes. If you don’t, I’ll split them evenly.

If you’ve got more than 5 designs, you’ll need to place a second order. Each order allows a maximum of 5 artworks.

Delivery

Standard turnaround is 5 working days from when I get your final artwork.

If you’re working to a deadline, please email me at Jay@tackyandupsetting.com before placing your order. I’ll always do my best to hit your timeline, but it’s best to check first to avoid any mix-ups.

What are clear vinyl stickers?

What are clear gloss vinyl stickers?

They’re printed stickers made from transparent vinyl with a shiny finish. The clear part shows through wherever there’s no ink, so you can see the surface underneath.

Can I get any shape I want?

Yes, we cut to any shape you need, circles, squares, stars, or something completely custom. Just send the design and we’ll sort it.

What do they work best on?

Glass, plastic, metal, anything smooth and light in colour. Windows, bottles, clear jars, screens, and packaging are common uses.

Are they waterproof?

Yes. The vinyl is water-resistant and we laminate them too, so they’re fine with rain and splashes. Just don’t stick them on something that’s going through the dishwasher every day.

Can they go outside?

Yes, but with limits. They’ll last in typical UK weather for 3 to 5 years. Stick them on a bin, a window, a lamppost, you’re fine. Just don’t expect them to survive ten years in direct sun.

Can I use them on coloured backgrounds?

You can, but lighter ink colours might not show up well. If you're sticking them on dark surfaces, it’s worth adding white ink behind your design or going with a different sticker type.

Are they see-through or frosted?

They’re clear, fully transparent apart from the printed areas. If you need something frosted or more private, that’s a different material.

Can I use them on car windows?

Yes, as long as you’re sticking them on the outside or on flat glass. Just remember they’ll fade faster in direct sun and might peel sooner if the car’s washed a lot.

Do I need to set up the artwork differently for clear stickers?

Yes, a bit. We’ll guide you through it. If you want white ink, or want to control where it prints, we’ll need layered files or clear instructions. Otherwise, colours will print without white behind them and could look a bit transparent.

Can I get a sample first?

Yes, you can order 10 sample stickers of one design. Same material, same print. It gives you a clear idea of how it’ll look and feel before committing to a bigger run.
