Typical buyers & uses

  • Automotive detailing shops — wheel center caps, trunk badges, and dealer decals applied to vehicles.
  • Packaging and gifting brands — a domed sticker seal on a boxed product to signal it is finished by hand.
  • Promotional product companies — small branded stickers for phone cases and giveaway items.

FAQ

Will the adhesive hold on a car exposed to sun and rain?

The 3M transfer film is rated for outdoor use; curved panels usually need a slightly larger contact area.

Can you match a dome height to a reference sample?

Yes, send a sample or photo and we will match the relief height in the tooling.

Do metal stickers scratch or peel like painted logos?

The plated metal surface resists scratching better than paint; the adhesive can lift if applied to a dusty or oily surface.

What is the smallest readable text at 20x8mm?

We usually recommend text no smaller than 1mm stroke width at that size for clean electroforming.

Can the adhesive back be rated for curved surfaces?

Yes, we can specify a conformable adhesive film for curved car panels or bottle caps.
