Magnetic signs should provide years of use provided you take care of them. Below are some helpful instructions to help you.

FITTING MAGNETIC SIGNS TO YOUR VEHICLE. Ensure the reverse side of the magnetic sign and your vehicle are clean, dry and free from any dirt or grit before attaching. It is a good idea to wax and polish the area that your magnetic sign will be positioned. Once on the vehicle, make sure the magnetic signs sits flat with no bumps that will allow air to flow between it and the vehicle. If your magnetic sign is placed in the wrong position, completely remove it and realign it – DO NOT slide it against the vehicle to straighten it as this will cause scratching to the paint. Do not apply the magnetic sign over sharp creases or mouldings. Do not place magnetic signs on freshly painted vehicles. Do not leave magnetic signs on a vehicle in hot weather – remove as soon as possible. Do not use  magnetic signs on your vehicle during extremely hot and sunny weather.

STORAGE. The best way to store your magnetic sign is FLAT. When storing, it is best to keep at room temperature as this keeps the material supple which will make it sit flatter when re-fitted to your vehicle.

CLEANING. Clean your magnetic sign with a NON-ABRASIVE cleaner. We recommend a gentle wash with a sponge or soft towel using warm water at least once a week. (Water won’t hurt, magnetic signs are waterproof). Chemical cleaning products should be avoided.
