Default What do you call those carsticker papers?

Hi. Anyone here who knows about those kind of papers used for car stickers? Or are they just called car sticker papers? Where can I buy this stuff?

Thanks

Are you talking about bumper sticker type paper or magnetic signs?

You mentioned your versacamm. I remember there used to be a small printer/cutter I think from roland.
Does anyone make a small one anymore? I really can't layout $13000 plus for one of these printers.
Is my only other option dye sublimation, to make stickers, decals, etc.?

Thanks

For a lot less, and a bit more manual work, you could just buy a plotter and do it like sign vinyl. A new Roland GX-24 and some design software (if you need it) would be under 2,000.

Yep, there are other options, even a small Stika cad cutter can do the job. You can outsource too. Some bulk sticker producers uses screenprinting. For some simple "own-use" jobs, a laser or inkjet printer can also be used. Sometimes, you have to laminate them manually by putting another "clear" sticker on top. Depends really on what the stickers are for.

ok. well first, they are for bumper stickers. and yesi can use either laser or inkjet.

the traditional way of laminating i know is by using a laminating machine. is this what you meant? and oh, the bumper stickers are really glossy, are those brands you gave are? thanks

Don't know about bumper sickers myself. I've seen the inkjet kind in office supply stores, but I am sure those aren't that good. I know that CafePress offers them - Custom Sticker (Bumper) : Create a Custom Gift of Your Own at CafePress.com! and there are places on the web that do them as well.

Maybe you could try weatherproof polyester label sheets. Try labelsonline.com
