Magnetic Care

It is very important to follow the recommendations below.  Nimon Signs & Embroidery, Inc. will not assume responsibility for signs that fly off of your vehicle, so please be cautious.

Before You Apply Magnetic Signs be sure your magnetic signs and your vehicle are clean and dry.  Lay the signs flat for a time so that they can regain their shape and will lay flat.  It is best if your vehicle has been waxed not less than two months ago.  If your vehicle has just recently been waxed, or is new, please allow several months for the wax (or paint) to cure to avoid damage to your vehicle.  Magnetic sheeting holds best to flat surfaces and surfaces with slight curves. Rounding the corners will help with a good attachment to your vehicle (see template below).  When the magnetic signs are placed in the wrong position, remove the sign and realign. Do not pull the magnetic sign to realign when it is against the surface, as the material may stretch due to resistance caused by the high magnetic strength. Make sure the entire magnet is against the metal surface (no air pockets). Do not apply to newly repainted surfaces.   Nimon Signs & Embroidery, Inc. is not responsible for any loss or damage that occurs due to mishandled magnetic media.

Some moisture and dirt may collect behind magnetic signs. Remove and clean both the signs and the surface and allow both to dry thoroughly. Repeat cleaning process weekly when used in an outdoor environment. For extra assurance, it is highly recommended that you remove your signs daily.

The magnetic sheet is more pliable and easier to work with when it is near room temperature when applied. The best way to store magnetic signs is flat. Avoid laying signs on protruding objects, and avoid rubbing the lettering against the other sign or any other object.  The graphic material we use is high performance, but not indestructible.  Avoid rolling the signs once you receive them (we roll them once for shipping only). 

Due to the fragile nature of magnetic signs, and our lack of control over individual conditions and the environment,  we will not address any claim after 30 days.  How long a set of magnetic signs lasts, directly relates to how they are maintained.
