Difference between an Ordinary Sticker and a Decal Sticker
Decal sticker is slightly
different from the ordinary stickers. This question is asked so many times on
different sites that what is the difference between a sticker and a decal
sticker? The sticker is a piece of paper with a thin lining on its back that is
removed when the sticker is applied it is like a label it is as simple as that.
As for the decal stickers (they can be in multiple pieces) they are actually
transferred from a masking sheet to a smooth surface. The masking sheet which
contains the letters or the words is pasted on a smooth surface and it is
pressed nicely so every word gets the paste and nothing removes when we gently
pull out the masking sheet. The words remain on the smooth surface and masking
sheet is empty now.
A
decal actually has a design printed on it. Whereas a sticker contains some kind
of printed information on them. The design can be as small as a book or as big
as a wall. They can be used on walls for designing purposes. Many decal
stickers are used for the full coverage of the wall. Giving the wall a complete
makeover.
