Some people wonder how decals are made. This page will provide a basic understanding.




First, the decal is laid out on the computer using special
software that tells the vinyl cutter what to cut into the vinyl.

Next, the software sends the information to the vinyl cutter.
The cutter uses a very fine blade to cut the vinyl as it is
fed back and forth through the cutter from a long roll.



After the cutting is complete, the vinyl is then cut from
the roll on the machine and taken to a table where the
"weeding" and "taping" processes take place. The image
above displays the most time consuming part of decal
making. The scrap vinyl is carefully removed by hand
leaving only the wanted decal pieces behind.






The "weeding" process is seen here, where all tiny pieces
must be removed with special tweezers that are able to
pick up any unwanted leftovers. Above, the center of
an "R" is picked out. Nobody needs that right?



Here, half of this sheet has been "weeded". The second
half will be "weeded" next so it can be "taped" up.



Now that the "weeding" is complete, the sheets are ready
to be "taped" as seen above. The transfer tapes main
purpose is to hold all of the pieces together so they
can all be applied at once. Who wants to put each of
the pieces on one at a time? Also, this tape protects
the vinyls surface from scratches as it is applied.



Here are the weeded & taped up decals.
We used a clear transfer tape which is
difficult to see in the photo.



The final decals cut individually.
