Cursive Aloha Hearts Decal - Aloha Sticker - Aloha Door Decal - Aloha Car Decal - Aloha Mailbox - Aloha Door Sticker - Hawaiian Greeting

This Aloha Decal matches the Mahalo Decal listing found here: https://www.etsy.com/mx/listing/1097667029/cursive-mahalo-hearts-decal-mahalo NOT USE listing mockups to choose a size. I do my best to show the decals at the sizes I have available, however, the mockups are NOT TO SCALE. Decal dimensions are available under the size/dimensions dropdown. MEASURE THE SPACE you wish to place the decal and MAKE A TEMPLATE so you can determine if the decal is big or small enough to fit the space you have available.

ITEM DETAILS:

** CHOOSING YOUR SIZE **
See listing dropdown - HEIGHT, SIZE, or DIMENSIONS - Dimensions shown are clearly listed in the dropdown.

Dimensions shown are the OVERALL DIMENSIONS of the decal and include all design elements (e.g. text, swirls, floral elements, etc.).

MULTIPLE SIZES are available for each decal and typically range between 1 inch and 11.5 inches high

Please read the following information carefully BEFORE purchasing your decal.

1) With a ruler, measure the HEIGHT(h) and WIDTH(w) of space you plan on applying your decal. For a decal to be seen at a distance (ex. car window) you need to choose a bigger decal. Typically, 5 inches works best but each design is different, a smaller height may work better if the width is very long.

2) Often, it is good to have space between your decal and the edge of the surface you plan on applying the decal. For example, if you are applying a decal to a mug and the mug is 4 inches high, purchase a decal that is 3 or 3.5 inches so you have a .25 to .5 inch space at the top and bottom of your mug.

3) If you are in doubt, make a template by cutting a piece of paper using the dimensions of the decal you wish to purchase. For example, if you want to apply a decal to your front door that is 3 inches high and 10.29 inches wide, make a template that is 3 high and 10.5 inches wide and place on your door to see if the decal will fit.

4) Visual size guide - sizes are approximate:
--- 1 inch = Height of quarter
--- 2 inch = Height of domino
--- 3 inch = Height of Deck of playing cards
--- 4.5 inch = Height of slice of bread
--- 6 inch = Length of american dollar bill
--- 7.5 inch = Height of DVD case
--- 8.5 inch = Width of piece of copy paper
--- 10 inch = Height of standard dinner plate
--- 11 inch = Height of piece of copy paper
--- 12 inch = Length of ruler

5) Please note that the symbol " means inches. Also, I abbreviate HEIGHT with h or H and WIDTH with w or W. If I only list the height, that means the width is the same or slightly smaller.

** CHOOSING YOUR SURFACE **

IMPORTANT!!! A decal cannot be applied to all surfaces. In order for a decal to adhere properly, the surface must be clean, smooth, hard, largely flat, & dry with a temperature between 50-90°F.

**Stellar and Stark is not responsible for decals not sticking to your chosen surface or errors applying your decal. If you are unsure whether or not your decal will stick , contact me via Etsy convo and REQUEST A SAMPLE to be sent to your residence. You can try out your surface and make sure the decal will stick before ordering.

The most common problems found with decal application are as follows:
--NOT choosing the correct vinyl type (indoor vs outdoor vinyl);
--NOT rubbing the top of the transfer tape thoroughly before pulling tape from decal;
--SURFACE is not flat enough e.g. washing machine door shaped like an upside-down bowl;
--SURFACE is too hot (over 90 degrees); SURFACE is too cold (below 50 degrees);
--SURFACE is too bumpy or textured;
--SURFACE is wet or environment is too humid;
--SURFACE is not cleaned properly (dirt, oil, soap, chemical residue, etc.);
--SURFACE is newly painted – WAIT AT LEAST 6 WEEKS;
--SURFACE is painted with value paint;
--SURFACE paint is whitewash;
--SURFACE paint is old, flaking, powdery, or chalky;
--SURFACE is painted with eggshell paint;
--SURFACE is painted with low or zero VOC paint ("Green paint");
--SURFACE is painted with "Teflon”, “silicone” or similar additives to make them “wash and wear“ e.g. - scuff resistant, child resistant, wear resistant, etc.;
--SURFACE is papered e.g. wallpaper, cardboard, cardstock
--SURFACE is waxed
--SURFACE is silicone
--SURFACE is covered with window film e.g. frosted, tinted, etc. - this includes window film applied by manufacturer.
--SURFACE is MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard)

TEST YOUR SURFACE: Test the surface using a piece of masking tape or Washi tape. Though not foolproof, this simple test may indicate whether your decal will stick to your chosen surface.

If you are in doubt about a surface you wish to apply a decal, please send me an Etsy convo and ask prior to purchase.

MIRRORS - Notice - If applying to mirrors, there may be a double reflection effect. This effect is especially noticeable with dark colored vinyl.

Your decal has an expiration date. DO NOT wait to apply your decal. Be sure to apply the decal to your chosen surface as soon as possible. The adhesive on the transfer tape and the decal changes as time goes by and can make your decal difficult or impossible to apply. These changes begin immediately and can alter the usability of your decal in as little as two weeks.
