American Flag Tailgate Decal Set | Chevrolet Decals

Description

A matte vinyl American flag decal set sized for truck tailgates, bedsides and toolboxes. Made for Chevrolet and GMC owners who want a clean, weather-ready flag layout.

A Flag Layout That Fits Chevrolet and GMC Tailgates

This decal set lays out the stars and stripes in a wrap-friendly format that works with the flat panels found on most full-size truck tailgates. Each stripe is a separate piece, so you can space them to match the lines of your tailgate, bedside or toolbox lid. Choose 4, 8, 12 or 18 inch sizes depending on whether you want a small accent near the handle or a large display across the whole panel. The matte finish keeps the look understated, closer to painted graphics than a shiny sticker. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the manufacturer.

Matte Cast Vinyl Built for Outdoor Use

We print this set on matte Cast Vinyl, the same material we use for our outdoor truck graphics. Cast Vinyl conforms to slight panel curves and textured areas better than thicker films, and the matte surface cuts glare so the flag reads clearly in direct sun. The inks are outdoor-grade and laminated into the vinyl, not sitting on top, which helps the reds and blues hold their color through washes, rain and road grime. Apply it to paint, glass or smooth aluminum toolboxes. For best results, apply above 50°F on a clean, wax-free surface.

Easy Positioning with Pre-Masked Stripes

Every stripe and star field ships pre-masked with application tape, so you place the whole set in sections instead of wrestling with one large floppy sheet. Start with the star field, use it as your anchor point, then work outward stripe by stripe. The masking keeps spacing consistent and lets you reposition a stripe before you burnish it down. A squeegee card and illustrated instructions are included. Most buyers finish a tailgate layout in under an hour with no bubbles, and the low-tack adhesive releases cleanly if you need to lift and reset a piece during application.

Sizing Guide for Tailgates, Bedsides and Toolboxes

The 4 inch set suits tailgate handle surrounds, mirror caps and fuel doors. The 8 inch set works well above or below the tailgate lettering area on mid-size trucks. The 12 inch set is our most popular pick for full-size tailgates, filling the space between the handle and the lower edge. The 18 inch set covers the majority of a full-size tailgate panel or makes a bold bedside Graphic. Measure your flat panel area before ordering, and remember the set spreads wider than its listed height since the stripes extend horizontally.

Care, Removal and Reorders

Once applied, the set holds up to pressure washing from a distance and routine hand washing. Avoid direct high-pressure spray on the edges for the first week while the adhesive fully cures. When you eventually want to remove it, warm the vinyl with a hair dryer on low and peel slowly; the adhesive lifts off paint without heavy residue, and any leftover bits come off with isopropyl alcohol. If you kit out a second truck or want matching flags on your camper or cooler, reorder the same size and the layout will match your first set.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

Will this fit my Chevrolet or GMC tailgate?

The set is sized generically for flat tailgate panels on full-size and mid-size Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Because each stripe is a separate piece, you can adjust spacing to fit around handles, lettering areas and camera housings. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the manufacturer.

Which size should I choose?

For a small accent near the tailgate handle, choose 4 or 8 inches. For a full-size tailgate, 12 inches fills the space between the handle and lower edge, while 18 inches covers most of the panel. Measure your flat area first, since the stripes extend horizontally beyond the listed height.

Can I take it off later?

Yes. Warm the vinyl with a hair dryer on low heat and peel slowly. The adhesive releases from factory paint without heavy residue, and any remaining bits clean up with isopropyl alcohol.
