Shop die cut stickersWhat is a laminate, and why does it matter?
A laminate is a clear layer that sits on top of the vinyl. Our stickers are made as waterproof vinyl with a laminate. The layer is part of how we make every sticker, so you do not pick it separately.
Have a special use in mind?
If your sticker has a special job, like going through a dishwasher or sitting in hot sun all day, ask us before you order and we will tell you what we know.
Does the finish change anything?
Gloss, matte and holographic are all waterproof vinyl with a laminate. Matte costs the same as gloss, and holographic costs more. See gloss vs matte vs holographic stickers for the price difference.
Which size and shape should I order?
For a bottle or tumbler, many people start with 2x2 or 3x3 inches. For a helmet or bumper, a larger sticker may be easier to see. Our sticker size guide has prices at every size, and custom water bottle stickers covers bottles in more detail.
What does it cost?
A 3x3 inch die cut sticker is $51 for 25 and $94 for 100 in gloss. The smallest price on our store is $37 for 25 stickers at 1x1 inch. Full prices are in custom sticker prices.
How do I order?
Open the product for your shape on the custom stickers page, choose size, quantity and finish, and check out. The smallest order is 25. We review every file before printing, and we reach out if something looks off. The sticker products say a 2 business day turnaround, shipped from Georgia, or free local pickup in Cumming.
Who asks if vinyl stickers are waterproof?
Mostly people with a specific spot in mind. A team ordering bottle stickers. A rider with a helmet. A shop owner with a truck bumper. A brand that wants stickers for outdoor gear. These are the uses our sticker page lists, so they are the ones we can speak to.
How do I pick stickers for my use?
| Where it goes | Ideas to start with |
|---|---|
| Water bottle or tumbler | A 2x2 or 3x3 inch sticker in any shape |
| Helmet | A smaller or mid size sticker, die cut to follow the logo |
| Car bumper | A larger size, such as 4x4 inches, so it is easy to read |
| Outdoor gear | Pick a size that suits the gear, then any finish |
These are suggestions to help you start. Measure the spot, then choose.

- Is your use on the list above? If not, ask us first.
- Is the spot clean and flat? A smooth spot is easier to work with.
- Is the size right? Hold a ruler against the spot.
- Have you picked a finish? Gloss and matte cost the same.
