Product Details

Set Up Your Artwork for Success

To ensure your Custom Glow-in-the-Dark Stickers print perfectly, follow these essential guidelines when preparing your artwork files:

Artwork File Specifications

Resolution: Minimum of 300 DPI for crisp, high-quality prints.
Color Mode: Set your file to CMYK (not RGB), with Pantone colors converted to CMYK, as this will give you the most accurate color results.
File Formats Accepted: AI, PSD, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PDF, or EPS.
Preferred Files: Vector artwork (AI, EPS) or high-resolution raster images (300 DPI).

Size Limitations for Glow-in-the-Dark Stickers

Smallest Size: 1” x 1”
Largest Size: 11” x 14”

Important Tips for Perfect Prints

Use vector files whenever possible for scalability.
Embed all images and outline all fonts to avoid missing elements.
Add 1/8” bleed beyond the cutline for a clean edge.
Keep important design elements at least 1/16” away from the cutline to avoid trimming errors.

Why 300 DPI Matters?

Artwork resolution plays a crucial role in print quality. Here's why 300 DPI is the standard:

Sharp, Detailed Prints: Prevent pixelation for a clean and professional look.
Accurate Colors: More pixels = better precision.
Professional Quality: Avoid blurry or distorted prints that may harm your brand’s image.

Common Resolution Issues & Fixes:

Issue	Cause	Solution
Blurry or Pixelated Print	Low resolution (under 300 DPI)	Use a high-resolution image or vector file.
Print Looks Fine on Screen, But Poor in print	Designed at 72 DPI (web resolution)	Recreate the artwork at 300 DPI or use vector graphics.
Loss of Quality When Enlarging	Resizing raster images	Start with a larger, high-resolution image or use vectors.

Glow Specifics & Tips

Pro Tips for the Best Glow Effect

Lighter Colors Glow Best: White and light tones allow the glow effect to shine through most effectively.
Avoid Heavy Dark Colors: Dark inks block the glow—use them sparingly if at all.
Transparent Areas Glow Strongest: Areas left clear or semi-transparent will maximize the glowing effect.
Yes, It Needs a Charge: These stickers must be “charged” with UV light or regular household lighting to glow in the dark.
White Ink Glows Too: Any white printed areas will glow just as much as the material itself.

Charge your Glow in the Dark Stickers in light before sticking

Apply stickers to clean, flat surfaces for a secure hold
Press down from one peeled end and smooth out to avoid bubbles

Glossy lamination is durable outdoors and works well for bumper stickers, window decals, and more
Dishwasher- and microwave-safe, making them great for food-safe containers
Weatherproof & waterproof, but not meant for full submersion (e.g., underwater use)

When it comes to ordering custom stickers, one of the most important decisions you can make is figuring out the best size to get. Choose a size that is too small, and your design may get lost in the shuffle. Get a size that is too large, and it may fail to impress your fans or potential customers.

Here are a few size comparisons to things we see all the time.

A quarter is about an inch in diameter, and this size works great for supporting branding labels, or small easy to hand out stickers.

An Oreo cookie is about 2 inches in diameter for a size that allows for an easy to see logo or visible designs, in a size that will still be easily seen if applied to the back of a phone or laptop.

Standard business cards are usually 2x3 inches, and ovals and rectangles in this size are popular options for custom stickers. This size is easy to share with your fans at events to get your logo out in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Custom Glow in the Dark Stickers?

Custom Glow-in-the-Dark Stickers are made from a special phosphorescent material that absorbs light and emits a soft glow in dark settings. They charge under both natural and artificial light, with longer exposure resulting in a brighter and longer-lasting glow

Are Glow in the Dark Stickers Waterproof?

Yes! Our Glow in the Dark Stickers are water-resistant and suitable for outdoor use. They are also dishwasher- and microwave-safe.

How Long Do Glow in the Dark Stickers Last?

After a full charge, Custom Glow-in-the-Dark Stickers can emit light for 2-5 hours, depending on the strength of the initial light exposure.

Can Glow in the Dark Stickers Be Used Outdoors?

Yes! They are weatherproof and suitable for outdoor use, though prolonged submersion in water is not recommended.

How does CMYK printing affect the glow effect?

Because CMYK ink is not transparent, areas covered in ink will block some of the glow effect. Lighter colors allow more glow to show through, while darker colors reduce glow intensity.

What is Rush Production?

Rush Production is available based on availability and is an optional service for stickers and labels only that speeds up your order's processing and manufacturing. When selected at checkout, your order is prioritized for artwork review and printed the next business day after you approve the proof. Rush Production does not include expedited shipping—faster delivery must be selected and paid for separately. It applies to the entire order, so if only part of your order needs to be rushed, place it separately. Orders with Waterless Tattoos are not eligible. To qualify for the next-business-day turnaround, your proof must be approved promptly. Delays in approval will delay production. Rush Production includes a fee for priority handling and faster turnaround. If you're in Colorado, local pick-up is also available for even quicker receipt. For more details, check out our Rush Production: How to Get Your Stickers and Labels Faster article.

To make the most of the glow:

Use lighter ink colors or areas with minimal ink coverage.
