How to orderSpecifications
Custom Magnetic Car Signs run on a 30 mil flexible magnetic sheet printed with full-color UV ink. Each sign sticks to steel body panels without adhesive and peels off in seconds. These are built for sedan, SUV, and crossover door panels where flat steel surface area gives the magnet a solid grip.
- Material
- 30 mil flexible magnetic sheet, removable, no adhesive.Roughly 0.75 mm thick. Sticks to steel panels and leaves zero residue when removed and cleaned weekly.
- Print Method
- Direct UV print, ink cured by ultraviolet light directly onto the magnetic face.Bonds color into the sheet surface for a scratch-resistant, weather-resistant finish that does not peel or bubble.
- Color Output
- CMYK full-color (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black combined to reproduce any logo color or photo).Bold, crisp color reads clearly from across a street or parking lot.
- Finishing
- Straight or rounded corners available.Rounded corners prevent edge lifting at highway speeds and are the recommended choice for car door use.
- Size Range
- 12x18 in, 12x24 in, and 18x24 in standard. Custom sizes available.Sized to fit sedan, SUV, and crossover door panels without overlapping handles or body creases.
- Indoor/Outdoor Rating

- Single/Double-Sided
- Single-sided print on a white magnetic face.The raw magnetic surface contacts the vehicle panel. The printed face faces outward.
- Weight
- A 12x18 in sheet runs roughly 0.5 lb. An 18x24 in sheet runs roughly 1 lb.Both sizes stay flat against the door panel at normal driving speeds.

- Apply, Remove, and Reuse Without Tools or Adhesive
30 Mil Magnetic Sheet Sized for Car Door Panels
The 30 mil flexible magnetic sheet (a thick, pliable magnet material roughly 0.75 mm thick) comes in three sizes built for standard car door panels: 12x18 in, 12x24 in, and 18x24 in. Each size accounts for door handles, body lines, and panel curves so your sign covers the flat steel surface cleanly. Sedan and compact SUV doors typically fit the 12x24 in. Full-size SUV and crossover doors usually take the 18x24 in without overlap.
Direct UV Print That Holds Up in Rain and Sun
A2Z Printing Hub bonds color directly to the magnetic face using UV curing. Ultraviolet light hardens the ink instantly on contact with the sheet surface. The result is a scratch-resistant graphic that holds up through rain, road spray, and direct sun without peeling or cracking. Sharp color. Crisp text. Weather resistance built into the face of the sheet, not added as a coating on top.
Apply, Remove, and Reuse Without Tools or Adhesive
No adhesive backs the sheet. Press it onto any steel door panel in seconds, then lift it straight off at the end of the workday without leaving residue, marks, or damage on your car's finish. That's the whole point: your personal car becomes a rolling ad during work hours and goes back to being your car by dinner. But reuse only works if the sign stays flat and the surface stays clean (more on that in Care Instructions).
Customer reviews
Ideal for
Not the best fit for
Vehicles with aluminum, fiberglass, or plastic body panels will not hold a magnet at all. Custom Vehicle Decals use adhesive that bonds to any smooth surface regardless of panel material.
Permanent branding that stays on the car 24 hours a day for 3 to 5 years is a job for Custom Vehicle Decals, not a magnetic sheet you remove nightly.
Curved surfaces like bumpers and hoods do not give the magnet enough flat contact to grip reliably. Custom Vehicle Decals handle curved and contoured surfaces with adhesive vinyl.
How to choose
Use these buying points to choose the right Custom Magnetic Car Signs configuration.
-
Matching the Sign Size to Your Car Door Panel
Most sedan and compact SUV front doors fit a 12x18 in or 12x24 in sign comfortably. Full-size SUV and crossover doors typically hold an 18x24 in sign without overlapping handles or body creases. Measure the flat steel surface from the door handle down to the body crease before selecting a size. Keep your design at least 0.5 in from all edges so nothing critical sits near the cut line.
-
Straight Corners Versus Rounded Corners
Rounded corners are the right call for any sign you drive with regularly. A square corner catches wind at speed and starts to lift, which weakens the magnetic grip over time. Straight corners work fine for low-speed display or stationary use, like a sign you set on a table at an event. But for daily highway driving, rounded corners are the one finishing detail worth choosing every time.
-
Magnetic Car Sign Versus Permanent Vehicle Decal
-
Choose a Magnetic Car Sign When:
You need to remove branding at the end of the workday, drive a leased vehicle, or share the car between business and personal use. The 30 mil sheet peels off steel panels in seconds and leaves zero residue.
-
Choose Custom Vehicle Decals When:
Your branding stays on permanently, or your vehicle has aluminum, fiberglass, or plastic panels where the magnet will not grip. Adhesive vinyl bonds to any smooth surface and holds 3 to 5 years outdoors without removal.
-
Single Sign Versus a Matching Pair for Both Doors
Order a matching pair so your car reads as branded from both sides of the street. Both signs use the same artwork file, so there is no extra design work involved. A single sign covers roughly half your street-level visibility. Two signs double it, and both ship together in one flat package.
Pair it with
When Your Vehicle Has Non-Steel Panels
Some car doors are aluminum or fiberglass and won't hold a magnet. Custom Vehicle Decals use adhesive vinyl that bonds to any smooth surface, so your branding stays on regardless of panel material. Permanent branding that lasts 3 to 5 years outdoors belongs here.
Same Magnetic Material, Bigger Vehicle
Your van side panel or truck door runs wider and taller than a standard car door. Custom Magnetic Van Signs and Custom Magnetic Truck Signs use the same 30 mil sheet and UV print process. Both come sized for larger surfaces, so a mixed fleet reads consistently across every vehicle type.
Door-Specific Fit for Compact Cars
Custom Magnetic Car Door Signs target the door panel with placement guides that account for handles and body creases. Useful when a general body surface size runs too wide for a compact sedan door.
Carry the Same Brand to the Job Site and Storefront
Your car magnet rolls the brand to every client address. A-Frame Signs at the job site entrance carry the same logo and phone number. So does a Business Signs install on your storefront. Your brand reads the same from the road, the sidewalk, and the front door.
FAQs
Will a Custom Magnetic Car Sign Scratch My Paint?
Not if you use it correctly. Trapped dirt or grit between the magnet and your paint is what causes scratches, not the 30 mil magnetic sheet itself. Remove the sign at least once a week and wipe both the vehicle surface and the magnetic backing with a damp cloth before reapplying. Never slide the sign across the paint. Lift it straight off every time.
Will the Sign Stay on at Highway Speed or Fly Off While Driving?
A 30 mil magnetic sheet with rounded corners holds securely at normal highway speeds. The rounded corners remove the edge that wind catches, so there is no lift point for air to get underneath. That said, always remove the sign before an automatic car wash. Brush rollers catch edges and can tear the sign off regardless of thickness.
Does the Magnet Work on All Car Body Panels?
Magnets grip steel body panels only. Most sedans, SUVs, and crossovers have steel doors, but some vehicles (certain aluminum-body trucks and luxury models) will not hold a magnet at all. Test with a refrigerator magnet on your door before ordering. If the refrigerator magnet does not stick, Custom Vehicle Decals with adhesive vinyl are the right alternative.
How Long Will a Magnetic Car Sign Last Before the Print Fades?
The UV-printed face holds up roughly 2 to 3 years with weekly removal and cleaning. Continuous outdoor exposure without maintenance shortens that lifespan noticeably. Store the sign flat on a steel surface (a file cabinet works) when it is not on the car. The print stays crisp significantly longer than a sign left on the door year-round.
Can I Get a Proof Before My Order Goes to Print?
Yes, every order includes a free digital proof showing your exact layout, colors, and corner style before we print anything. Production starts within 1 business day of your approval. Request changes to the proof as many times as you need before approving.
Get your artwork right
Accepted file formats are PDF, AI, PNG, and JPG. Vector files (AI or PDF with embedded fonts) are the best choice for logos because they scale without softening edges.
- Resolution
- Resolution matters most on smaller signs. Set your file to at least 150 DPI at final print size. For any sign under 18 in wide, 300 DPI is the better call since viewers pass close enough to spot a soft edge on a car door.
- Color mode
- Set your color mode to CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black combined to reproduce any logo color) before exporting. RGB files convert on our end, but colors can shift in ways that surprise you. Add 0.25 in bleed on all four sides. Keep logos, phone numbers, and critical text at least 0.5 in from every edge.
- Bleed
- Worth knowing: the magnetic sheet is white by default, so white areas in your design show as the sheet itself. Full-bleed color is available, but avoid hard color stops right at the edge.

Care instructions
Product care
- Remove the sign from your car at least once a week. Wipe the vehicle surface and the magnetic backing with a damp cloth to clear any dirt, grit, or moisture. Trapped grit between the two surfaces is the main cause of paint scratches, not the magnet itself. Always remove the sign before an automatic car wash. Brush rollers catch the edges and can tear the sign off at speed.
- Never slide the sign across the paint. Lift it straight off the panel every time. Store it flat on a steel surface (a file cabinet works fine) or between two flat boards. Rolling or folding causes a permanent curl that weakens the grip on the door panel.
