Transfer stickers (also known as cut vinyl decals) are made by cutting your design—lettering, shapes, or logos—from solid-color vinyl and using transfer tape to move it onto the surface. There's no background, no border, and no extra material—only your design appears once applied.
At ZDLabel, we produce custom car transfer stickers for both personal and commercial use, using outdoor-rated vinyl and precision cutting, making application clean, simple, and long-lasting.
Unlike printed stickers, transfer stickers give a painted-on effect. They're ideal when your design:
✔️Has separate elements (e.g. letters or a complex logo)
✔️Requires a clean, minimal look with no rectangular background
✔️Is intended for long-term outdoor use (e.g. branding, team graphics, slogans)
Our stickers are pre-masked with application tape, so you can align and apply all elements in one step, ensuring perfect spacing and orientation.
✔️Car door logos or fleet vehicle branding
✔️Windshield or window lettering
✔️Motorsports numbers and decals
✔️Custom sayings or symbolic shapes
✔️Minimalist promotional graphics
Transfer decals offer the cleanest appearance among all sticker types and are especially popular for DIY installers, designers, and car modification enthusiasts.
