Question
How long will stickers last?
Answer
Sticker lifespan depends on the material, the finish, and where it lives. Indoor paper stickers are meant for shorter-term use, while laminated vinyl holds up for years, even outdoors.
| Type | Typical durability |
|---|---|
| Paper, indoor | Around 1 to 2 years |
| Vinyl, uncoated | Several years indoors, about 1 to 3 years outdoors |
| Vinyl, laminated / outdoor | About 3 to 5 years outdoors with a UV laminate, sun and water resistant |
For long outdoor life, choose a laminated vinyl sticker.
