How Do Window Graphics Work?
Window graphics are durable vinyl films applied directly to glass surfaces. The material bonds securely to the glass but remains removable. This allows you to update branding, add privacy, or display promotional content without permanent changes to your windows.
​
Vinyl window decals come in several material types, including privacy films for privacy without blocking light and perforated vinyl for one-way visibility. You can also choose cut vinyl lettering to create sharp, professional text for business names and store hours.
​
The graphics can be mounted on the outside glass for a bold, eye-catching presence that stops foot traffic, or on the inside glass for protection against weather, outdoor elements, and vandalism. Both placements produce strong results, and the right choice depends on your specific application, glass type, and viewing distance.

Types of Glass Graphics
A wide selection of window graphics solutions is available, with each material selected based on placement, visibility requirements, optical effect, and expected lifespan.
​
Custom Window Graphics​
Custom window graphics are full-color vinyl decals produced from your artwork, logo, or design. They are available in various sizes and custom shapes. They are one of the most flexible options for storefront windows, car windows, and interior glass panels. The custom window graphics are suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
​
Custom vinyl window graphics can display your logo, business name, images, and promotional messages to everyone who passes by. Research shows that approximately 76% of consumers enter a store they have never visited based solely on its signage. This makes well-designed custom decals one of your most effective and lowest-cost marketing tools.
​
Vinyl Window Decals​
Vinyl window decals are digitally printed or plotter-cut graphics created from high-performance cast vinyl. Cast vinyl conforms better to surface contours and provides superior outdoor durability compared to standard calendared vinyl. These decals are weather-resistant and engineered to hold color under sustained UV exposure.
​
Vinyl window decals use a removable adhesive that allows for residue-free removal when it is time to update your graphics or change a seasonal promotion. They are the preferred choice for businesses that want a durable window.
​
Vinyl Lettering & Window Signs​
Vinyl lettering is a precise, cost-effective way to display your business name, store hours, phone numbers, website, and services on storefront windows and glass doors. Cut from cast vinyl using a computer-controlled plotter, vinyl lettering produces sharp, clean edges with no background film visible. Only the lettering itself adheres to the glass for a professional, painted-on appearance.
​
Vinyl lettering can be used as standalone window signs or as part of a larger custom window graphics layout. Cut vinyl decals can be applied to the inside or outside of glass, depending on your preference. They last 5-7 years outdoors under ideal conditions.
​
Perforated Window Graphics & Perforated Window Decals​
Perforated window graphics use a micro-perforated vinyl film to display full-scale, high-vibrance branding on the outside of a window while maintaining a clear view from the inside. Also called one-way vision graphics, these films feature a 50/50 or 60/40 hole pattern that allows light to pass through while a solid-looking graphic appears on the exterior face.
​
Perforated window decals are ideal for retail storefronts, restaurants, vehicle rear windows, and any application where full-coverage visuals are needed without completely eliminating interior visibility. They can cover an entire window from edge to edge, turning large glass spans into high-impact billboard-style displays.
​
Frosted Glass Vinyl & Etched Glass Vinyl​
Frosted glass vinyl and etched glass vinyl replicate the look of acid-etched or sandblasted glass without the cost of permanent fabrication. These materials produce a soft, diffused light effect that provides privacy while maintaining an open, airy feel in the space. They are widely used for conference room partitions, office glass panels, medical privacy screens, and retail dressing rooms.
​
Etched glass vinyl can be cut into custom shapes and intricate designs. It is fully removable without damage to the underlying glass surface. When combined with full-color print elements, frosted and etched finishes can add a unique touch to interior architectural glass.
​
Static Cling & Window Clings​
Static cling graphics are adhesive-free window decals that attach to glass through static electricity rather than glue. Window clings are easily removable, can be repositioned multiple times, and can be removed easily without leaving any residue behind. This makes static cling the ideal material for short-term promotions, seasonal graphics, and window stickers that need to change regularly.
​
Window clings are available for both indoor and outdoor use. Because they are adhesive-free, they are particularly popular for businesses that lease their space and cannot permanently alter the glass.
​
Clear Window Decals​
Clear decals are printed on a transparent vinyl film so that only the graphic, logo, or lettering is visible on the glass, while the background remains completely see-through. Clear window decals are ideal for windows where you want the design to float directly on the glass surface rather than sit on a solid background.
​
Translucent Window Graphics​
Translucent window graphics are printed on semi-transparent vinyl that allows natural light to filter through while displaying your design. They communicate brand messages and decorative imagery without darkening the interior. Translucent graphics are popular for restaurants, retail stores, and corporate lobbies where both visual impact and interior light quality are important.

Ideal Applications for Window Graphics
Vinyl window decals serve a wide range of industries and business types:
​
Retail Storefronts​
Your storefront windows are a high-visibility marketing space. Every person who walks or drives by sees your window. Turning that glass into promotional space creates daily impressions without ongoing ad spend.
​
Common storefront window graphics applications we design and install:
​
-
Full-color logo and branding graphics for street visibility
-
Business hours and contact details in clean vinyl lettering
-
Promotional window decals for sales and special events

​
Well-placed window decals help customers identify your store among competitors in busy commercial areas. Plus, they are easily removable, so you can update promotions quickly without repainting or replacing permanent signs. The result is flexible branding that supports sales and keeps your storefront current.
​
Corporate Offices & Conference Rooms​
Glass walls in corporate offices & conference rooms define modern workspace, but they often lack privacy. Window graphics solve that without blocking light. Frosted films and etched glass vinyl create defined meeting areas while keeping interiors open and professional.

-
Branded window decals with company values and mission statements

Frosted consultation room panels

Privacy screening in corridors and along glass walls

Branded reception area graphics

Safety markers on large glass surfaces

Directional window signs for visitors
​
These applications protect confidentiality while maintaining a professional setting.
​
Restaurants, Cafés & Hospitality​
Restaurant storefront windows influence walk-in traffic. Guests often decide where to dine based on what they see through the window. Strategic window graphics help communicate atmosphere, pricing level, and current promotions before customers step inside.
​

Menus and featured items are displayed on the window
-
Business hours and contact information in vinyl lettering

Seasonal promotions using static cling or window clings

These updates help restaurants stay current, promote limited-time offers, and maintain a polished storefront that attracts consistent foot traffic.
​
Car Window​
A car window can extend your marketing reach beyond your physical location. Vinyl decals and perforated window graphics applied to a car window promote your services wherever you travel.
​
Vehicle applications include:
​

Company logo and contact details on rear windows
-
Perforated window film for visibility from inside
-
Promotional messaging for services or events

​
Short-Term Promotions & Seasonal Campaigns​
For short-term promotions & seasonal campaigns, businesses often need graphics that install quickly, look professional, and remove without damage. Window decals designed for temporary use make it easy to update messaging for sales, grand openings, and limited-time offers.
​
Common short-term applications include:
​
-
Sale announcements and discount promotions
-
Holiday-themed window graphics

Grand opening displays

Our Window Graphics Installation Process
Sun Tint provides professional installation to ensure your vinyl window decals perform correctly and last longer.​
​
-
Site consultation
We assess your glass surfaces, discuss your goals, and review material options. Our glass graphics installers measure your windows to ensure proper fit and recommend solutions based on your needs.
-
Material Selection & Production
We select the right vinyl material based on your application. Perforated vinyl for storefronts, frosted vinyl for privacy, cut vinyl lettering for branding, or printed graphics for full-color designs. All graphics are produced with UV-stabilized inks and weather-resistant materials, suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
-
Surface Preparation
We clean all glass surfaces thoroughly to remove dust, debris, oils, and contaminants. This step ensures the vinyl decals bond securely and remove cleanly when needed. Decals should be applied to clean, flat glass surfaces for the best results.
-
Professional Application
We use the wet application method for large-scale window graphics and perforated window decals. This technique allows us to position the vinyl for perfect alignment before squeezing out air bubbles. For smaller vinyl lettering and cut decals, we use transfer tape and a dry-apply method, using a hard, flat edge to smooth the material during application.
-
Final Inspection
After installation, we inspect the graphics from both sides to confirm proper alignment and a bubble-free application. We provide care instructions for cleaning and maintaining your window decals.
Call (502) 254-0001 to schedule your window graphics installation.
We Offer Custom Sizes & Design Options
Every window is different, so we offer custom sizes and fully custom designs for all window graphics. Whether you need a small decal for a glass door or full coverage across an entire window wall, we measure your space and produce vinyl window decals tailored to your exact dimensions.
We work with your logo, brand colors, images, and messaging to create custom window graphics in custom shapes and various sizes. From bold storefront branding to subtle etched glass vinyl patterns, each design is produced to fit your space accurately and install cleanly for a professional finish.
Call (502) 254-0001 for design consultation.
Safety & Compliance for Glass Graphics
Window graphics help businesses meet safety codes and accessibility standards while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.
​
-
Glass Manifestation: Many building codes require visual markers on large glass panels to reduce accidental collisions. Manifestation graphics add visible indicators to glass walls and partitions without blocking light or disrupting design.
-
ADA-Compliant Signage: Vinyl lettering and window signs can be designed to meet ADA requirements for accessible signage.
-
UV Protection: Many window graphics provide UV protection that helps block harmful rays, reduce glare, and limit interior fading caused by sun exposure.

FAQs
Can window graphics be used indoors and outdoors?
Vinyl window decals can withstand extreme temperatures and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Outdoor vinyl uses UV-stabilized inks and weather-resistant adhesives to last 5-7 years outdoors. Indoor graphics can last even longer because they're protected from outdoor elements.
What's the difference between etched glass vinyl and frosted film?
Etched glass, vinyl, and frosted film are similar materials that replicate the look of sandblasted or acid-etched glass. Both provide privacy while maintaining natural light. The main difference is in texture and opacity level - some frosted films have a dusted or hoarfrost appearance, while others are smoother.
Can window graphics be applied to non-glass surfaces?
While window graphics are primarily designed for glass surfaces, many vinyl materials can also be applied to non-glass surfaces like painted walls, metal panels, and car window applications.
How long do window decals last?
Window graphics can last around 5-7 years outdoors with proper care. Inside-glass decals can last longer than outside-glass decals because they're protected from the elements.
Can window decals be removed without damaging the glass?
Window decals can be removed without damaging the glass when high-quality vinyl and removable adhesive are used. With proper removal techniques, they come off cleanly without leaving residue or harming the surface.
Can I combine window graphics with decorative films?
Decorative films can be combined with window graphics to create layered effects that provide both privacy and branding. For example, you can apply frosted vinyl for privacy and then add vinyl lettering or a logo over the top.
Do window graphics meet building safety codes?
Glass manifestation graphics meet building safety codes that require visual markers on large glass spans. These decals prevent accidental collisions and are commonly required in commercial spaces with glass partitions.
What are custom window decals used for?
Custom window decals are used for branding, promotions, privacy, and displaying business information. You can add text such as logos, hours, and contact details on storefront or office glass.
Is an inside glass installation better than an outside glass installation?
Inside glass installation offers added durability and protection, while outside placement can provide stronger color vibrancy and readability depending on the application.
What affects the cost of window glass graphics installation?
The cost depends on the size of the window, material type, design complexity, surface preparation requirements, and whether installation is inside or outside.
