What's Your Experience with Large Vehicle Magnets?

Just SAY NO.

And if they insist, make sure you get them to sign a paper stating they are going against your recommendation and you will not be held liable when they get lost and or/destroyed.

 

i would not to it but if you do make sure you tell them not to store it rolled up. it will start cracking after a while. If they don't lose it after a while. lol

 

Magnets that large tend to create bubbles/ wrinkles in behind, and once the wind catches a corner it we, it's gone. We do magnets that large but only for use on it signs, not io a moving vehicle. Perhaps use one of the newer uptra removable vinyls.

 

If they think that they will be able to use the magnetic on their next vehicle tell them that the size and configuration of the space on the new van will likely be different, thus they will need a new magnetic.

If the magnetic is going on an older van check for paint oxidation. Magnetics, like decals, don't like it.

Go ahead and make the magnetic BUT do like us: No guarantee for durability. No discount for a new one when the old ones are lost or stolen.

 

They suck. They always end up looking bad and fall off too easy. But if someone insists I make them, but put a disclaimer in the proposal.

 

If you do opt to go with a magnet, we've just started carrying magnetics. We have a 20 mil Printable High-Energy magnet which has a 90 lb per sq ft pull force which stronger than most typical 30 mil magnets. It's thinner and lighter and may be a better option for a magnet this size on the side of a vehicle. It's also available in a 30 mil High-Energy with a pull force of 144 lb per sq ft.
