What changes the price

The honest part most printers won't say

A wrap lasts longer and looks more permanent, and we print that film too — 3M and cast vinyl rated for years on curved panels, plus fleet-grade reflective. It is on the quick-turn range; what we do not do is apply it, so a full wrap still needs an installer. tell us what you need if you want the film quoted.

Magnets win where the vehicle is leased, personal, or does double duty — signage that comes off in thirty seconds and needs nobody to fit it.

Who This Isn't For

When You Shouldn't Order Car Magnets From Us

We’d rather lose an order than have a disappointed customer. Don’t order from us if:

Best For

Which Car Magnet Is Best for Your Situation?

Pick: A pair for both doors

The everyday service vehicle

Order two. One door is a half-finished look, and the second costs far less than the first because setup is shared. Phone number largest, service second, name third — that is the order people read at a light.

Shop this configuration →
Pick: Larger panel for a van or box

More surface, more distance

A bigger flat panel lets the phone number read from further back. Measure the flat area only; the magnet cannot bridge a body line or a recess.

Shop this configuration →
Pick: A set across a small fleet

Several vehicles, one look

Print them together so every vehicle matches. Color can drift between separate runs, and mismatched vehicles read as subcontractors rather than one company.

How an Order Actually Goes

Here's the actual sequence when you order: your file is checked by a person before anything prints — resolution, bleed, safe zones. If something's wrong, you hear from us with a fix, not a reprint bill. Production runs on commercial presses, not office equipment. You get tracking when it ships. If a deadline is tight, we tell you whether we can hit it before you pay — we've turned down orders we couldn't deliver on time rather than take the money and miss.

Questions

Car Magnet Printing FAQ

Will a car magnet stay on at highway speed?

Yes, on a clean flat steel panel with full contact. Magnets come off for three reasons: the panel is curved so only part of the magnet touches, there is dirt or ice under an edge, or the vehicle is aluminum or fiberglass and never held it at all. Check with a fridge magnet before ordering.

Do I need to take vehicle magnets off?

Take them off and clean under them regularly — weekly is sensible. Moisture and grit trapped underneath will mark the paint over time, and that damage is on the magnet, not the print.

What's the minimum and maximum order quantity?

The minimum is 1 and the maximum is 150 per line item. Any quantity in that range is orderable in the store, and per-unit cost drops as quantity rises.

How long does car magnets printing take?

Most orders are produced and shipped within 3–4 business days — your exact turnaround is confirmed on the product page before you pay.

What if something's wrong with my order?

If it's our error — improper cutting, print quality, color or print shift, or printing delays — we fix it, period. First-time retail customers are also covered by our Money Back Satisfaction Guarantee. Full details are on our guarantee page.
