How Can You Use Vinyl Lettering For Various Purposes?

Pin It
If you want to design a greeting card or a scrapbook or just label the boxes in your home in a creative fashion, you can use vinyl lettering. This letter lasts long, cost effective and very easy to clean and maintain. When applying vinyl lettering, clean the surface and keep it dust free so the letters adhere properly to it. It is very important to clean the surface before the application of the vinyl lettering. So make sure you clean it with a good quality cleaning with a cloth or a paper towel. Debris or dust should be cleaned to stop bumps or wrinkles from forming on the lettering.

Application

Use a pencil and ruler to draw a line on the clean surface to align the vinyl lettering before you apply it. This will make sure it looks aligned.Now, peel off the backing paper carefully from the vinyl lettering. Place the lettering carefully using the line as a guideline. Go back a step and have a look at it, if its in the proper position pat the surface and press the lettering to the surface.

Adhering

Once the vinyl lettering is in the position you want, press it down firmly to the surface removing any bubbles they might have formed. Starting from the center work out towards the edges and keep removing the wrinkles, if any. Erase the lines drawn with pencil. If the lettering has a top coating of film, peel it off once all bubbles and wrinkles have been removed. Lastly, wipe the vinyl lettering with a cloth.

Vinyl Lettering
Do not stretch the vinyl lettering while applying it to the surface. Make sure you don't have to re-position the lettering once they have been pressed down onto the surface. A straight pin can be used if a large amount of bubbles are present in the lettering, to pop them.

These tips will help you get your vinyl lettering adhered without any difficulty.

  1. Actually, I haven't seen vinyl lettering and I am very curious how this looks like. Can I check this on book stores? Or are these custom made? I was also wondering if these vinyl letterings are those put on glass walls. - www.megaprint.com
