Screenprint & Display print a huge number of outdoor stickers for use on spray painted metal surfaces, in all shapes & sizes. To ensure that the stickers adhere to the metal surfaces, they are printed on a high-tack adhesive vinyl, that is both waterproof and can withstand a range of temperatures. (For further details of temperatures please request a specification sheet).
To ensure stickers adhere to the metal surface they need to be applied in warm temperatures (not on cold days or in freezing temperatures, although they can withstand these once applied correctly) and the surface needs to be clean, dry, grease & rust free.
Regarding light-fast stickers, there are factors that will affect how long the inks will last outdoors, this includes the amount of direct sunlight that they are exposed to, and the inks used.
