Caring for your vehicle magnet takes a little time and TLC

This pdf will help you with:

  • Washing the vehicle magnet
  • Washing your car
  • Storing your vehicle magnet
  • Other care and concerns for your vehicle magnet

Applying:

  • Always clean the car magnet and the surface you are going to apply it to.
  • A clean vehicle will prevent your magnet from slipping off your vehicle at high speeds.
  • Wipe dry before applying.
  • Custom car magnets can become stiff in cold conditions and may not properly grip your vehicle panels. Use caution when using your magnets in these conditions.

Positioning:

  • Attach your magnet to a smooth metal surface that is flat as possible
  • Affix one corner of the sign first, then allow the magnetic pull to attach the rest.
  • Be sure the entire sign is flat against the surface with no air pockets.
  • If you position your magnetic sign incorrectly, remove it and reattach. Do not pull the magnet across the surface as it could stretch and damage the sign.
  • Do not attach your auto magnets over a ridge, trim or rust spot that would prevent the sign from laying flat.
  • Make sure your car magnet signs are firmly affixed to the vehicle before driving.

Removing & Cleaning:

  • When removing your magnetic car sign, be careful not to bend or crease the corners of your sign.
  • Remove your car magnets periodically to check that they are still securely fastened and to clean if necessary.
  • Avoid applying your auto magnets to horizontal metal surfaces exposed to direct sunlight, such as car hoods.
  • You can clean the surface of your custom magnet with a wet paper towel. Products like Windex can help with small smudges or stains.
  • Make sure to completely dry your magnet after cleaning.

Storing:

  • Keep your vehicle magnets in a clean, dry place when not in use.
  • Store your custom car magnets by stacking them on a flat surface, like a freezer or filing cabinet.
  • Do not stack vehicle signs with the magnetic sides touching each other.
  • Do not store heavy objects on top of or against your magnet signs.
