All our materials are unique and have special qualities, but some are more low-key. This is a quickish explanation about the joys of STX.
STX is a self-adhesive vinyl (also known as a plastic sticker). It is available in white, which functions like a typical sticker or label, but also Clear too! STX has a premium feel and a removable adhesive, so will not leave any mess behind when removed. STX is special because it is HP Indigo certified, and this is special because it adds value! HP Indigo printing is digital, so you can print multiple kinds or sequential numbers at minimal extra cost. This makes STX perfect for Parking Permits, or Certifications, or Codes (Bar and QR)
HP Indigo Digital print is incredible quality, uses white ink for special effects or opacity, and has low setup costs. Short-runs, variable data or different designs. Can be cut to shape or kiss-cut on sheets too!
Here are some examples of Clear and/or STX projects in situ:
Lets be Clear!
We have other Clear materials too. We normally recommend these based on certain questions, like: How long will it be in place? Who is installing these? What does the design look like? etc.
Below is a summary of each our materials that are available in clear, and why we might suggest them…
CLINGZ
Short term applications on walls and doors where you require transparent areas, or windows facing inside or out. CLINGZ is the easiest and quickest material to install, perfect for quick turnarounds.
ADTAC
Best for inexperienced installers because it is super easy and if you make a mistake you can try again. Looks best with a flood white backup, because the transparent areas aren’t super clear. Some people like this effect and we have plenty of examples with transparent areas within the design for you to test out.
SKINZ
Best for achieving intricate cut out effects because the spaces are optically clear. SKINZ will remain in place for longer periods of time too, so perfect for longer seasonal window displays.
VIEW
This is a self-cling, or static-cling-vinyl, also certified to print HP Indigo. This zero adhesive option adheres to glossy surfaces and can also be printed with unique information and different designs inexpensively. We have plenty of samples we are happy to send out, so you can test their different qualities in situ.
