Printed Frosted Decal Cut Option
Die-Cut
Die-cut means that we are cutting through both the vinyl decal material and the paper backing. This cut type doesn't leave any material around the decal. Another way to look at it is to think of it like a "cookie cutter." Your decals are all individually cut out to the contour of your design, so you have individually cut decals with no paper material around the design.

File Requirements
- Set up to file to the size you’re ordering the product as.
- Cut line is indicated with a vector stroke line. Pink is the preferred color.
- All decal files require a minimum of 1/16" bleed.
- Convert all text to outlines.
- Make sure no elements are selected for "Overprint"
*We recommend choosing rich black (100-100-100-100) over CMYK (0-0-0-100). Rich black is true black — it has a less charcoal gray appearance *
We print in four color CMYK or six color CMYKLcLm. Please keep this in mind when submitting files for printing as color tone shifting may happen if file is submitted in RGB format. If there is a specific PMS color you need, please specify that to us when submitting your order so we can help you verify that the proper color mix is used (vector artwork only).
Customer supplied files are printed as they are received so we cannot guarantee color, clarity or final output as we are just printing the supplied files and have not set them up for printing.
If you are concerned about the file output we will be happy to do a test print for a nominal fee prior to final order if requested.
All our printers are calibrated daily to International Color Consortium (ICC) coloring profile standards to ensure accurate color production.

More About Printed Frosted Decals
Printed Frosted Decals provide added flexibility for projects that require custom graphics along with the distinctive appearance of frosted glass. Full-color printing makes it possible to incorporate branding, artwork, patterns, and messaging while the frosted vinyl provides a professional backdrop and added visual privacy.
Common applications for printed frosted decals include:
- Branded graphics for storefront windows and glass entrances
- Custom logos and designs for offices and conference rooms
- Promotional or seasonal window displays
- Decorative patterns for lobbies, partitions, and reception areas
- Privacy applications that incorporate custom artwork or messaging
Each decal is produced to order using supplied artwork, allowing the finished graphic to be tailored to the requirements of each project. Optional white ink can be incorporated to increase opacity, strengthen contrast, or enhance printed colors, providing greater control over the final appearance on glass.
Compare Color and Print Appearance
Color can look different depending on the print option you choose. Transparent printing creates a lighter, more subtle appearance by allowing the frosted background to remain visible through the printed colors. Adding white ink behind the printed areas creates a more opaque base, giving colors a brighter, bolder, and more defined appearance.
Compare Front and Back Appearance
If your decal will be seen from both sides of the glass, consider how you want the design to appear from each side. Transparent printing allows the colors and design to remain visible from the reverse side, while adding white ink behind the printed areas creates a more solid appearance with less visibility from the back.
