Do window clings go inside or outside? Window clings by nature are not permanent, so they are best placed inside. If you place a static cling decal on your car windshield for example it will likely fall off an blow away in the wind after a few short minutes of driving.
For this reason, we advise keeping your static window cling film indoors on surfaces such as mirrors and glass. Static cling is a short term option display designs or print outs and are not able to withstand harsh elements such as rain.
What are window clings made out of? Window cling is made out of a thin yet durable vinyl material. It is scratch and tear resistant, though there is no adhesive gel material involved. Cricut static cling for example comes in a roll with a paper backing and the vinyl static cling material attached to it.
It is machine cutter compatible and often comes in a single solid color. This means that they can typically be applied to a greater variety of surfaces, including glass, metal, wood and plastic. In addition, because of their hardier material, vinyl decals can sometimes be used outdoor, which delivers some added flexibility in use. Vinyl decals should be considered for long term use because they will require some patience and likely a heat source for example, a hair dryer to remove them.
A great situation to use a vinyl decal would be a vinyl wall mural. Static clings are very similar to vinyl decals, but they are very easy to remove, which means you can swap and switch them around throughout your home, car, or office without having to spend any time removing them. They can be applied just as easily as they can be removed. Static clings work best on glass, but can also be applied to smooth, clean, and non-porous surfaces such as plastic and metal.
That is why you would need a vinyl decal for a wall mural and not a static cling. Similarly, you would need to consider a vinyl decal if you wanted to put something on a sign outside of your home because regular static clings are not suitable for outdoor use. Whether you decide on adhesive-backed or static cling, adding decorative film to your glass is the easiest, most cost efficient way to enhance your space.
