Match your mag board to your paintwork
We make sure your magnetic sign blends in with the vehicle paintwork – with our colour consultation, we’ll closely match the sign vinyl with your vehicle’s colour – including metallic paintwork.
The finished result is a far cry from the online print-shop versions you’ve probably seen where the white rectangular sign sticks out like a sore thumb!
Choose your magnetic sign.
We only use industry-approved media which is 0.85mm thick. It has been speed tested at 70mph to not fall off.
Our standard magnetic signs come in 2 sizes. Unlike most sign companies who provide standard mag boards in A5, A4, A3 and A2 sizes, we’ve worked out cost effective sizes which fit most cars and vans.
We also offer custom sizes which can be shaped to your graphic or your vehicle panel.
We use a high performance vinyl for the decals on your magnetic boards with a minimum 5 year exterior life under normal exposure conditions.

What the FAQ?
Chat to our team if you have any more questions.
How thick are your magnetic signs?
Each sign is 0.85 mm thick which is the industry-approved thickness for magnetic sheeting.
Can I put a sign on a door that is curved?
Most likely. Your magnetic vehicle signs should be able to stay in place without any issues on doors or side panels with slight curves to them – and they work very well on flat surfaces. If your surface has dips or bumps, we don’t recommend magnets.
How long will my sign last?
With proper care and use, magnetic car signs can be used for about two years. At that point, we strongly recommend replacing your magnet to prevent it from falling off your vehicle while you drive.
Can I put a sign on a new paint job?
No, you’ll want to wait for your paint to cure – and this is also the case with a new clear coat or wax job. The recommended wait time is 90 days for a new coat of paint, 60 days for a clear coat and 2 days for wax.
Will I ever have to take signs off my vehicle?
Yes. We recommend only using these magnets for short-term use. Long-term use without caring for the car surface underneath can run the risk of paint damage. In fact, we recommend you take your signs off at least once a week and that you wash and dry the space underneath. If you live somewhere that experiences extreme weather, we recommend you remove your magnetic sign even more frequently – ideally once a day – to keep your sign and car paint looking fresh.
If you’re looking for a more permanent way to add your branding to your vehicle, check out our Vehicle Signwriting page.
Can I wash my vehicle with these signs on?
We recommend removing them before washing your vehicle.

Printed Vinyl
What is printed vinyl?
Printed vinyl is exactly what it sounds like: inks are used to print a design onto clear or white vinyl. Printed vinyl is ideal for multiple colours, gradients, shading, photographs and complex illustrations. Due to the ink being on the surface of the vinyl, the colour can fade quicker than cut vinyl which has the colour throughout the material.
Cut Vinyl
What is Cut Vinyl?
A specialist machine follows the design using a sharp blade, which cuts out shapes and letters from pre-coloured rolls of vinyl. This gives a sharper edge to the artwork than printed graphics.
Cut vinyl decals have no background, the background that you see behind the cut vinyl design is what you install it onto, be that a bare coloured surface or pre-applied coloured vinyl.
The magnetic signs we had from Outpost Custom were the perfect solution for us!
14/02/23“We’ve had 2 set of magnetic boards for our 2 businesses which we can interchange. Our van is also used for camping, where some campsites do not allow corporate branding, so with these we have the flexibility to remove when required.
Outpost understood our brief, designed and produced in record time, we are very happy with final product and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services.”

What makes us different?
All our customisations are designed by our in-house design team and put into production with our in-house customisers.
We believe that manufacturing should be kept local. We want to support businesses within our community whose income helps stimulate the local economy. We use local suppliers for a few of the services that we don’t currently produce in house – embroidery and PVC banners. We’ve worked with all our suppliers for years, and we trust them to produce products for our customers with the same dedication to the craft that we have. Everything gets quality checked by our production team and it’s all managed by us, which saves you the hassle of dealing with multiple companies, whilst still offering our customers excellent value for money.
