These magnetic signs can help promote your business across large distances. Whether your vehicle is on the move for deliveries or is parked on the street, car magnets will surely get your brand noticed. Install them on your vehicle to reach a bigger market without the recurrent fees for traditional ads.

What are car magnets? 

Car magnets serve as your business card on the road. These auto signs are printed on a 30 pt. magnetic stock that sticks firmly and seamlessly to any vehicle, giving it a custom-painted look.  

Durable and UV-resistant, custom car magnets are an economical way of promoting any business. Order them once and use them for many years. Update your messaging as frequently as you need or remove the signs when your vehicle is “off duty”. 

Boost Attention to Your Message With Custom Car Magnets

Car magnets come in a variety of shapes and sizes, allowing you to drive more attention to your message or branding. Choose from the following traditional shapes: 

  • Rectangle/Square 
  • Oval  
  • Circle 

 

Magnetic car signs are also available in custom shapes and sizes to make your message stand out even more. To personalize your car magnets, choose Custom Size and Custom Shape from the dropdown menu.

How to Install Car Magnets

Installing car magnets takes only a couple of minutes. Before using them, find the best spot where customers will see your advertisements. Car magnets are usually installed in two places: 

  • Side of the vehicle – Side placement makes it easy for customers to see your magnetic sign while your vehicle is parked on the street. 
  • Back of the vehicle – If your vehicle is on the move, back placement lets the drivers behind you to see your message.  

 

Now it’s time to put the magnets in place. Here’s how to do it: 

  1. Before installing, place the magnet on a flat magnetic surface for at least 24 hours to flatten it.
  2. Wipe the vehicle surface and back of the magnet with a wet cloth and detergent. Let dry.  
  3. Place one end of the magnet in the desired position. Line up the other edge of the magnet, making sure that it’s flat against the metal surface.  

Note: Make sure that the vehicle surface is flat and entirely metal where the magnet will be placed. Avoid installing on surfaces where there are protrusions (molding, decals, pinstripes, etc) because these will prevent the magnet from sticking securely to your vehicle.

Extend the Life of Car Magnets

Magnetic car signs are durable, but with proper care, you can use these signs for as long as two (2) years.  

When cleaning your vehicle, remove the magnet to clean debris from the vehicle surface. This will help extend the magnetic hold of the magnet and prevent any damage to the car sign.  

If you will not be using the car magnets for a long period, store them flat and away from direct sunlight.

Q:
Need my own designs in magnets
Asked 11 days ago by Sheila
A:

We will print the artwork or design you submit to us. There are certain file rules that need to be followed to meet our printing procedures:

  1. The main requirement for your artwork is it needs to have a 250-300 DPI resolution.
  2. The file size should be exactly the same or very close to your order size for optimal printing. 
  3. Please add a 1/8" bleed to extend past the trim line (the customer's order size) so that the image background prints to the edge and no white areas appear.
  4. All design elements need to be 1/8" inside the trim line so these won't be inadvertently cut in the printing process.
  5. You can submit your artwork in most regular formats available (PDF, .AI, jpeg

We will perform a 33 point graphic check on your artwork before sending the job to print. We have a free proof process where you get a PDF proof  which you need to approve online before we send this to print.  After filling out the specifications on the Product Page, just click on the "Start with a Free Proof" link so that you may upload your file and we can provide notes on how it will print based on the above rules. 

We also have an application online that is actually an easy-to-use Design Tool if you are starting from scratch:

  1. Select the correct size option on the Product Page for the Car Magnet. Fill out all the other specifications like Material, Printed Size, Quantity and Printing Time.
  2. Click on  "Create Your Design Online" located underneath the specification area and it will give you the canvas of the exact size of the magnet.
  3. Click on the "ABC" Icon and a text box will appear where you can type in the wording you need.There are icons there you may click on that will automatically center the text or align it in the way you need it. You may even drag the entire sentence to an the area you need it to be.
  4. The menu also allows you to choose the font type, size and color of your text. You may also choose the color of the background or if you want it to remain white.
  5. You can insert a logo to from your PC or put a border on your label.
  6. There is a feature for you to insert some high resolution images which you can filter by subject (Real Estate, Car Maintenance. Construction, etc.). These are copyrighted so you would need to pay a small one time fee to use them. You may then use the image you purchased for other artwork or to reorder in the future.   
  7. Once you are happy with the design, save it and the system will ask you to create an account and your artwork will appear in My Saved Designs tab.
  8. Check out and place the order.

If you have any difficulties in navigating the Design Tool, our Customer Support Representatives will be able to help you set up your design. Our lines are open 24 hours a days during weekdays and during office hours on weekends at 888.888.4211.

Q:
Alot of the bad reviews were that the magnets didn't stay on the the vehicle while moving. What have to done to rectify this?
Asked a month ago by scoopss4u@gmail.com
A:

The 30 PT Magnetic Stock used for our Car Magnets is the industry standard for these products due to its durability and magnetic strength. We take very seriously what customers have to say about our products and our production team continue to alway make sure we are sourcing the best  materials from what is available in the market. We sell thousands of these magnets every month so we are very conscious of the feedback of our customers considering it is one the most in demand products we offer.

We also try to advise our customers to make sure that the surface of the vehicle is clear of any residue or dust and that it is as flat as possible so that there are no air pockets or spaces between the magnet and where it is placed.  This has a crucial impact on how well the magnets adhere. Further, we also need to remind the customer to check if the surface is suitable and is ferromagnetic (high level of iron, steel, nickel and/or cobalt).  There are some vehicles that may have a strong ceramic, fiberglass or aluminum content on the body that are obviously non-magnetic.  We also have encountered situations there maybe some repair may have been done and some epoxy coating was present which will not make the magnets work.   

Q:
Can this sign be used on the highway at a speed of 65 miles/h?
Asked 3 months ago by samuel
A:

Yes. we have had very little feedback that these actually come off at high speed. Just be sure the surface is flat and free of any dirt or grime when the magnet is installed.  Also, the magnets only stick to metal surfaces that are primarily made of iron, steel, nickel, cobalt among others.  Please make sure the surface you need them to stick to is not made of fiberglass, hard plastic, aluminum, copper, brass, lead, silver or stainless steel.  Also they will not stick to surfaces that have epoxy fillers from any previous bodywork.
