How to Install Your Custom Car Magnet
Place your magnet on a flat magnetic surface for 24 hours to restore magnetic memory.
Before installing your magnet, be sure to put it on a flat magnetic surface such as a refrigerator for 24 hours. We ship all our magnets rolled up to prevent damage during shipment. Placing them on a magnetic surface will help flatten the magnet for installation while resetting the magnetic memory. Failing to place your magnet on such a surface will result in poor adherence to the vehicle surface during installation and subsequent use
Clean the vehicle surface and magnet before installing it.
We recommend cleaning the exterior of your vehicle and wiping down the back of your magnet with a damp cloth (a mild detergent and water mix will also work) prior to installing on the vehicle’s surface. By cleaning both the vehicle and magnet and allowing them to air dry you’ll prevent any dirt or tiny rocks from scratching the vehicle’s paint and create a solid connection between the magnet and vehicle surface.
Place the magnet on a flat magnetic vehicle surface (no curves, bumps, or molding)
Please note that the installation surface must be completely flat without any bumps, curves, or molding. The surface must also be a magnet-compatible metal, otherwise the magnet will not work. Make sure the magnet completely adheres to the surface without air pockets
Avoid damage to your magnet or vehicle by removing and cleaning both surfaces frequently
Remove your magnet on a frequent basis to quickly clean the application surface as well as the back of the magnet. Doing so will increase its longevity and hold.
Remove magnets during car washes or when not in use.
Remove your magnet before entering a mechanical car wash or using a power washer, both of which can permanently damage your custom car magnet. We also recommend storing the magnet if you won’t be using it for an extended period. Store it flat and out of direct sunlight.
Care
After removing your vehicle’s magnet we recommend cleaning it before storing it flat in a container, in a cool, dry place or with a piece of non-abrasive fabric on each side. Storing it in any of these ways will prevent any damage to you magnet including the printed side, keeping it in excellent condition for future use.
