Magnetic signs can be stored when not in use and reattached when needed.
Central signs magnets are made from top quality 0.9mm magnetic sheet which will last for many years.
Magnetic signs can be made to any size or shape you need.

It’s quick and easy to apply your magnetic signs to your vehicle. Follow these simple steps for the best results:
- Check all the edges of the sign for lumps, bumps or damage. A bump on the edge can allow air and moisture to penetrate under the sign. This can cause it to lift off the vehicle or damage the sign.
- Before applying your magnetic signs make sure both the vehicle and the back of the signs are clean and dry. Wash with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
- The area of the vehicle you’re attaching the magnetic signs should be free of indents, ridges, rust spots and any trim. The area should also be as flat as possible.
- Starting with the top edge, allow the magnetic pull between the sign and the vehicle to gradually come together and help it along the way. Once the car signs or van signs are flat against the surface, check to ensure there are no air pockets.
- If you’ve accidentally attached your magnetic vehicle signs in the wrong place, completely remove them and start again. When removing, lift off at the sides and not the corners and don’t pull the magnetic signs across the surface of your vehicle – this may stretch or damage them.
- Ensure your new vehicle signs are fixed on firmly before driving away.
Magnetic signs are easy to care for and will last for many years if looked after.
Before using your magnets for the first time make sure that the panel is clean and dry. Apply car wax to the panel and the reverse of the magnet.
Remove your magnets every week and clean the back of them and the panel they are applied to. This removes any grit, dirt and moisture which has built up, helping prevent scratches or marks on your paintwork.
Wash signs with warm water and mild detergent. Avoid cleaning fluids and solvents as these may damage your signs.
When not in use make sure your magnets are stored flat or on a smooth metallic surface, such as the inside vehicle panel or the side of a filing cabinet. You can stack the signs one on top of another to save space.
