Durable & long lasting

Looking for a new way to build awareness about your business? With personalised magnetic van signs, you can add quick and effective marketing to a car or van’s side, back, or even both. Durable, weather-resistant and wind-tunnel-tested, the right magnetic sign can get your business name and logo noticed by pedestrians and motorists alike — and they can help you make a strong first impression.

Market your business with every mile

Custom magnetic car signs are an ideal marketing opportunity for companies that hit the road such as delivery businesses and call-out services. They’re also a unique way to spread the word about your brick- and-mortar shop or restaurant. Whatever your business or vehicle, our custom-size car signs will provide a great fit.

Intuitive design process

Once you’ve found a favourite design for your van magnet, make it yours by adding your custom details and choosing the options that work best for you. We’ll use fade-resistant UV ink printing to add your design to the matte surface of your car magnet sign — and the finished product will be ready to stand out wherever the road takes you.

Everything I've order for my business from Vistaprint has been excellent. Business cards, pens, pads and now these magnetic car signs - excellent!

Strong magnets

2 Sept 2025 | Claire B. | Verified Buyer
Please with the overall impression. The magnets seem strong at present. The purple colour matches my branding at present, but if it's like the metal signage it may fade quickly, watch this space.

Awesome

Great Magnet

The magnet is printed nicely, easy to clean and strong (even at motorway speeds it stays firmly in place).

Frequently asked questions

Applying your car magnet is an easy and tool-free job. If you follow our application and care guide below your magnet can last for up to two years:

CLEAN: Clean the vehicle's surface and the back of the magnet with a damp cloth and detergent.

DRY: Let both air dry completely.

APPLY: Apply the magnet to a flat surface without bumps or rust. You’ll know the van magnet is properly affixed if there are no air bubbles between the magnet and the vehicle surface, and if the magnetic car sign (including the corners) is flat against the surface.

Each car sign is 0.85 mm thick.

Your magnetic car 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.

While our magnetic signs for cars will stick to most metals, they won’t stick to aluminium or carbon fibre. In this case we recommend using our car stickers or car window stickers to help you advertise your business on your vehicle.

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.

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.

Yes. We recommend only using these magnets for short-term use, especially repeat 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 car sign even more frequently — ideally once a day — to keep your sign and car paint looking fresh.

The best answer for your sign may depend on your specific vehicle. If you’re working with a larger van or lorry, you can take advantage of the space on a side door with your choice of prominently displayed magnetic lorry signs. Magnetic signs for vans may include options for side panels or even the back door — especially useful if you’re often in heavy traffic. That’s why we offer a range of options that can work with a variety of vehicle types and sizes. Please also remember that our magnetic vehicle signs won’t stick to aluminium or carbon fibre panels, so avoid trying to stick them on to those parts of your vehicle.

Yes, we’ve wind-tunnel-tested our largest magnetic car signs (40 x 60 cm) to ensure that they stay in place.

If you choose a custom size, you can make your sign as large as 99 x 99 cm. If you choose a standard size, the largest you can select is 40 x 60 cm.
