Step 1: Artwork Setup 🎨

Before we print, it all starts with your design! Proper setup ensures that your stickers come out just as you imagine. Here’s what happens during this stage:

Key Considerations:

• Drawing Cutlines ✂️: Define the shape your sticker will be cut into.
• Adding Bleeds: Ensure there’s extra unprinted space around the edges for trimming.
• Inputting Registration Marks: To make sure the stickers are cut accurately.
• Adjusting Colors to CMYK 🌈: This ensures accurate color representation when printed.
• Nesting the Artwork: We arrange multiple designs efficiently on the material to reduce waste.
• Exporting in the Correct Format 📁: Common formats include .pdf, .png, .ai, and .jpeg.

Tools to Create Your Artwork:

Here are some beginner-friendly and professional design tools you can use to set up your stickers:

• Canva (popular for beginners)
• Adobe Illustrator (industry standard for professionals)
• Procreate (Apple iPad users)
• Pixlr (free online photo editor)
• Vector Magic (turn images into vectors)

No design experience? Don’t worry! Our team is here to help convert your design for free and provide advice. Just get in touch, and we’ll make sure your artwork is ready for printing. 😊

Step 2: Printing 🖨️

Once your design is set up, it’s time for printing! At Goodbandmerch.com, we use state-of-the-art printing technology to produce vibrant, high-resolution stickers on a variety of materials.

Printing Process:

• We use PVC or PET print media, loaded into professional printers capable of printing at up to 1440 DPI for sharp, detailed images.
• The ink is then curedin one of two ways:
  • UV Inkjet: Uses UV light to cure the ink instantly.
  • Solvent Inkjet: Requires a 24-hour de-gas period to cure properly.

---

Step 3: Laminating 🛡️

For added protection, we can apply a laminate layer over your custom stickers to maximize durability. Laminating shields your stickers from scratches, sunlight, chemicals, and water.

Laminate Types:

Gloss: Adds a shiny finish for bright and vibrant designs.

 

Matte: Creates a subtle, non-reflective surface.

 

Textured: Adds a tactile feel to your stickers.

Whether you want a glossy, shiny sticker or a matte, refined finish, the laminate layer protects your designs and ensures they last longer. 🌞

---

Step 4: Cutting ✂️

This is where your stickers get their final shape! We offer a variety of cutting options, including basic shapes like circles or rectangles and custom die-cuts that follow the precise outline of your design.

Cutting Methods:

• Die-Cutting: We use digitally controlled knives or high-speed lasers to cut your stickers with precision and accuracy.
• Custom Shapes: Get as creative as you want! From complex outlines to simple shapes, we can cut it all.

Goodbandmerch.com ensures quick turnaround times with minimal waste using advanced cutting technology, so you receive your custom stickers faster, with a perfect finish every time!
