Magnetic Sign Maintenance
- Magnetic signs will last for years with simple maintenance and monitoring. Here are our recommendations:
- At least once a week or every time you clean your windshield, clean your signs front and back to prevent dirt buildup. Dry them before replacing on vehicle.
- Keep the vehicle clean and polished; polish both sides of the sign with the same wax or polish you use on the vehicle. We recommend Maguiar’s#20 or Simonize Poly-sealant.
- Do not overlap the sign on body trim, abrupt body contours, door handles, mirrors, etc.
- Test the vehicle surface for magnetic attraction. The signs do not adhere to fiberglass, composites, aluminum, or body filler. Even new cars may have been repaired with fillers.
- Store sign by rolling and keep in cardboard tube. Or lay flat on smooth surface such as refrigerator or file cabinet. Do not leave laying out on a seat or in a hot car or the magnetic vinyl will distort.
- Regularly monitor your signs to verify they’ve not been tampered with or re-positioned incorrectly. Passersby sometimes like to play (oooh look Mommy!) with the big magnet!
