Color Chart for Die-Cut Transfer Decals

Color Options for Die-Cut Transfer Stickers

Use this chart for transfer-style decals that ask you to choose a color in Step 2. Actual photographs of the vinyl are used whenever possible.

Looking for full-color printed decals? This is not the correct chart for products that ask you to choose a material in Step 2. Please use our full-color print color chart.

Choosing the Right Decal Color

Transfer decals do not have a background. Our guide shows examples on different surface and helps you visualize how transfer decals look once installed.

Specialty Vinyl Materials

Specialty vinyl is separated from the standard color chart because the finish, installation surface, design size and flexibility are often more important than the base color. Read each material's notes carefully before ordering.

Important application note: Many metalized and specialty materials are not recommended for inside-glass installation or compound curves. A compound curve bends in two nonlinear directions, similar to the surface of a ball.

Chrome & Mirror Finishes

Best for: Show vehicles, helmets, race cars and decorative decals. Keep in mind: Mirror-finish vinyl is thicker than standard vinyl and is not recommended for compound curves or inside-glass applications.

dark smoke vinyl

Dark Smoke  This is a dark tinted vinyl that allows some color below the decal to show through.  The example photo shows the the Dark Smoke installed (on the left side) on 4 different colored surfaces (Red, Orange, Silver, and Yellow).  Works great for shadows!

Reflective Vinyl

Best for: Night visibility, safety markings and decals that need to stand out when illuminated by headlights. Reflective vinyl appears similar to regular vinyl during the day and reflects brightly when direct light hits it at night.

Reflective vinyl returns light toward its source, making decals much more visible when illuminated by headlights, a flashlight, or a camera flash. In normal daylight, the colors can look similar to standard vinyl but may have a pearl or metallic appearance.

See more pictures of reflective vinyl decals and stickers

Important information about reflective vinyl

  • Do not use reflective vinyl on the inside of glass when you want the selected color visible from outside. The adhesive side is silver, so the decal will appear silver through the glass.
  • Reflective vinyl is considerably thicker than standard vinyl—approximately 5–7 mil. Designs with fine details may need to be ordered 1–2 inches larger than the minimum listed size so the details can be cut successfully.
  • Reflective material is best suited to smooth or gently curved surfaces and is not recommended for compound curves.

Outdoor Life Expectancy

Outdoor Life Expectancy for your decals.  This is a rough estimate from the manufacturer of each color and is based on "normal" outdoor conditions.  Extreme conditions can shorten life expectancy while if the decal is inside or garaged for most of its life will greatly increase the life of the decal.

Standard Colors - 5-6 Years

Premium Colors - 8-10 Years

Etched Glass - 5 Years

Reflective - 7 Years

Fluorescents - 2 years MAX. We buy the longest lasting Fluorescent material available but it fades much quicker than standard vinyl.

Chrome (any color) - 5 Years

Diamond Plate - 5 Years

Engine Turned - 5 Years

Ultimate Carbon Fiber - 5 Years

Brushed Aluminum - 5 Years

More Information About Our Decals / Stickers

More Information About Your Decal

Every Fast Decals product is custom-made in the size, color/material options you select. Here are a few helpful details about sizing, materials, backgrounds, and customization.

Custom-Made for Your Order

Every decal is made to order according to the size, color/material, and other options you select on the order form.

Commercial-Quality Materials

Our decals are made from commercial-quality vinyl designed to last for years in outdoor conditions. Exact outdoor life varies by material and application.

See our die-cut vinyl color chart or printed decal material chart for additional information.

Choose Your Size

Most designs can be made in nearly any size. Sizes are normally measured from left to right, and you can choose your desired width on the order form.

Some products, including certain stick-figure decals, custom lettering by height, etc, may use a different sizing method when noted.

Choose Your Color or Material

Single-color decals can be made in any available color shown on our vinyl color chart.

For full-color printed decals, you will normally select a material rather than a vinyl color. Printed colors may also be adjusted when the design allows.

Most Decals Have No Background

The white rectangle used to display the product image is usually not part of the decal. Most of our decals are cut around the shape of the design, allowing the color of the application surface to show through the open areas.

Some full-color designs intentionally include white areas, a printed background, or a contour around the design. Check the product image and description for details.

Adhesive and Installation

Our decals normally have adhesive on the back for installation on the outside of a clean, smooth surface. Front-adhesive decals for installation inside glass are also available for most designs.

Optional Shadows and Outlines

Many single-color transfer decals can be ordered with a shadow, outline, or contour in a second color.

Automatic Quantity Discounts

Available quantity discounts are calculated automatically as you order. When applicable, qualifying items do not need to have the same design. *Some coupons cannot be combined with other promotions.

Need a Change to This Design?

Is the design close to what you need, but not quite perfect? Use the Ask a Question option on this page to describe the change, or place your order and include the requested modification in the comments box.

We can often adjust lettering, colors, layout, or other design details. We will contact you before production if we need clarification.

Understanding the Different Decal Styles

The examples below show three common decal styles. The exact construction of your decal depends on the product and material options selected.

Comparison of die-cut transfer, full-color transfer, and contour-cut printed decal styles

Die-Cut Transfer Decal

Only the individual parts of the design remain after installation. There is no printed background, so the application surface shows through all open areas of the design.

The product image may show the design in black for clarity, but your finished decal will be made in the color you select.

Full-Color Transfer Decal

The artwork is printed in full color, but selected open areas can still be removed. The application surface will show through those cut-out portions.

Thin cut lines shown in the product artwork help indicate which interior areas will be removed.

Contour-Cut Printed Decal

The entire design is printed and cut around its outside shape. Depending on the artwork, the decal may include a white border, colored contour, or solid printed background.

A thin outline in the product image may be used to show the approximate outer cut line.
