Matte Finish
Smooth printable face with a professional matte graphic appearance.
Removable Branding
Remove, clean, store flat and reapply the graphic when properly maintained.

Your artwork is printed directly onto the magnetic surface using full-color UV printing.
The process supports logos, text, photographs, gradients and branded backgrounds while producing a durable matte printed appearance.
The finished magnet is waterproof and UV safe for properly maintained indoor or outdoor use.
Removable Vehicle Advertising

They are useful for temporary promotions, seasonal services, replacement vehicles, subcontractor identification and short-term business advertising.
- Install during business use
- Remove when the vehicle is used personally
- Change promotions or service messages
- Move the magnet to another compatible magnetic surface
- Clean and store flat between uses
Vehicle Compatibility
Vehicle Magnets Require a Magnetic Steel Surface
Vehicle magnets do not attach properly to every car, truck or van.
Some vehicle doors, body panels, tailgates and exterior parts are made from aluminum, plastic, fiberglass, composites or other non-magnetic materials.
Test the exact installation area with a household magnet before ordering. Test several points because different sections of the same vehicle may use different materials.
Flat Magnetic Steel
The complete magnet must contact a clean, smooth, flat magnetic surface.
Non-Magnetic Panels
Aluminum, plastic, fiberglass and composite panels may require removable or permanent vehicle decals instead.
Custom Sizes
Custom Vehicle Magnets up to 36″ × 96″
Vehicle Magnets are available in custom dimensions within production limits up to 36 inches wide × 96 inches high.
Smaller sizes are commonly used on car and truck doors, while larger graphics may work on compatible vans, equipment, steel cabinets or temporary jobsite surfaces.
Measure the exact magnetic area before ordering. The complete magnet must fit on one smooth, flat panel without extending across seams, molding, trim, handles or deep body curves.
Corner Options
Choose Straight or Rounded Corners
Square Corners
A traditional rectangular format for vehicle doors, equipment and temporary magnetic signs.
Rounded Corners
A softer finished shape that reduces exposed corner points during normal handling.
Keep important logos, phone numbers, QR codes and other essential artwork away from all finished edges and corner areas.

More Than Vehicle Doors
Use Magnetic Signs on Other Compatible Steel Surfaces

The removable format makes it easier to change branding, project information, department identification or temporary notices without permanently modifying the surface.
Vehicle Magnet vs. Vehicle Decal
Choose the Right Vehicle Branding Option
| Feature | Vehicle Magnets | Vehicle Decals |
|---|---|---|
| Application | Attaches magnetically | Uses adhesive |

Vehicle Magnet Design Tips
Design for Fast Recognition While the Vehicle Is Moving
Make It Prominent
Use your company name or logo as the main visual element.
Keep It Short
Use a concise description that communicates your primary service quickly.
Make It Large
Your phone number should be easy to recognize from nearby traffic or pedestrians.
Use a Short URL
Include your website when it remains simple enough to read quickly.
Improve Readability
Use strong contrast between text and the background.
Avoid Clutter
Long service lists and small paragraphs are difficult to understand on vehicle graphics.
Viewing Distance
Keep the Message Easy to Understand in Seconds
- Design for nearby vehicles and pedestrians
- Use simple typography without overly thin decorative details
- Limit the layout to the most important service and contact information
- Print a reduced proof and check whether the message remains clear
Corner & Edge Safety
Keep Important Information Away from the Magnet Perimeter
- Keep text, logos, phone numbers and QR codes away from finished edges
- Allow extra clearance when rounded corners are selected
- Avoid thin borders requiring exact alignment with the outer edge
- Use backgrounds or nonessential artwork near the perimeter
Color & Production Notes
Prepare Artwork for Direct UV Magnet Printing
- Convert final artwork to CMYK before uploading
- Monitor colors may differ from the finished UV-printed magnet
- Convert Pantone and spot colors to CMYK
- Do not rely on unconverted spot colors for exact matching
- Very dark artwork should retain enough contrast and shadow detail
- Low-resolution images may appear soft or pixelated when enlarged
- Minor cutting and surface variations may occur during custom magnet production
Installation
How to Install a Vehicle Magnet Correctly
- Test the surface: Use a household magnet to verify the exact installation area is magnetic.
- Inspect the panel: Confirm the vehicle surface is smooth, flat and free from rust, filler, damaged paint or loose paint.
- Clean both surfaces: Wash and completely dry the vehicle panel and magnetic back.
- Choose the position: Keep the magnet away from seams, molding, trim, handles and curved areas.
- Apply one edge: Align one side with the selected area.
- Lower gradually: Allow the remaining magnet to contact the vehicle smoothly.
- Flatten the magnet: Press gently from the center toward the edges.
- Check the perimeter: Make sure every edge sits completely flat.
- Leave it overnight: Allow the magnet to remain attached overnight before driving for the first time.
Before Driving
Inspect the Magnet Before Every Trip
- Confirm every edge and corner remains completely flat
- Remove the magnet if any section is loose, curled or lifted
- Never drive with a magnet crossing body seams, trim or curved areas
- Recheck attachment after cleaning, repositioning or extended storage
Cleaning
Remove and Clean Vehicle Magnets Regularly
- Remove the magnet regularly to clean underneath it
- Clean both the vehicle surface and magnetic backing
- Use mild soap, water and a soft cloth
- Allow both surfaces to dry completely before reapplication
- Remove dirt, moisture and debris that may collect underneath
- Avoid abrasive pads, scrapers, strong solvents and harsh chemicals
Vehicle Washing
Remove the Magnet Before Washing or Detailing
- Remove the magnet before an automatic car wash
- Remove it before pressure washing
- Remove it before applying wax or detailing products
- Clean and dry the vehicle surface before reinstalling the magnet
Storage
Store Vehicle Magnets Clean and Flat
- Clean and dry the magnet before storage
- Store it flat against a clean steel surface or supportive flat backing

Frequently Asked Questions
What material are the Vehicle Magnets made from?
They are produced from high-strength 30mil matte magnetic material with full-color direct UV printing.
Will a vehicle magnet work on every car?
No. Vehicle magnets require compatible magnetic metal. Aluminum, plastic, fiberglass, composites and some repaired body panels will not hold the magnet properly.
How can I test my vehicle before ordering?
Place a household magnet on the exact location where the custom magnet will be installed. Test several points because different panels on the same vehicle may use different materials.
What is the maximum Vehicle Magnet size?
Custom dimensions are available up to 36″ × 96″. The actual usable size depends on the available smooth, flat magnetic area of your vehicle or other surface.
Can I choose rounded corners?
Yes. Straight square corners and rounded corner options are available.
Can vehicle magnets be removed and reused?
Yes. They can be removed, cleaned, stored flat and reapplied to another compatible magnetic surface when properly maintained.
Can a Vehicle Magnet cross a car door seam?
No. The complete magnet should rest flat on one continuous magnetic panel without bridging seams, trim, molding, handles or deep curves.
Why should I leave the magnet on the vehicle overnight before driving?
Allowing the magnet to remain attached overnight before the first drive helps establish full surface contact. Inspect the entire perimeter before driving.
Can I take my vehicle through a car wash with the magnet attached?
No. Remove the magnet before automatic car washing, pressure washing, waxing or vehicle detailing.
What should I use on a non-magnetic vehicle panel?
A compatible removable or permanent vehicle decal may be a better option for aluminum, plastic, fiberglass or other non-magnetic vehicle surfaces.
What information should I put on a business car magnet?
Focus on your business name or logo, primary service, phone number, short website address and one simple call to action. Avoid long service lists and small text.
Do you offer custom Vehicle Magnet printing in Tampa?
Yes. OneStop Design & Print provides custom Vehicle Magnets for Tampa contractors, service companies, real estate professionals, delivery businesses, landscapers, restaurants and mobile businesses.
