Custom Name Tailgate Decal for Trucks | Personalized

Description

A custom name tailgate decal cut from durable vinyl, made for truck owners who want their name, nickname or business name across the tailgate. Choose your size and lettering when you order.

Put Your Name Across the Tailgate

Your truck works hard, so give it a signature. This custom name tailgate decal is cut to order with the exact text you type in, spelled and spaced the way you want it. It works with first names, last names, nicknames, ranch names or a small business name, and the lettering is cut from solid vinyl so there is no background film to trim around. Apply it across the tailgate, on the bed rail, or anywhere on the body panel that needs a personal touch. Because each decal is cut fresh after you order, you get lettering sized to the width you pick, not a one-size-fits-all font stretched to fit.

Personalized Truck Decals in Four Practical Sizes

Pick the size that matches where the decal is going. The 4 inch size suits toolboxes, bed rails, fuel doors and window corners. The 8 inch option fits a toolbox lid or a smaller tailgate accent. The 12 inch size works well centered on a tailgate or along the top of a bed rail. The 18 inch option spans most tailgates with lettering large enough to read from a following car. Size refers to the longest dimension of the finished decal, so a long name in a given size will sit shorter in height than a short name in the same size. If you are between sizes, going up one usually keeps the lettering readable.

Matte, Gloss, Static Cling and Clear Options

Choose the finish that matches your truck. Matte black is the popular pick on dark paint because it reads as painted-on lettering with no shine. Gloss adds a clean, wet-look finish that stands out on flat or faded paint. Static cling mounts without adhesive, so you can peel it off and reposition it, which suits leased trucks or anyone who changes lettering by season. Clear vinyl carries your lettering on a transparent film for a subtle layered look over paint or glass. All four finishes are cut from cast or calendered vinyl built for outdoor exposure.

Applying Your Tailgate Lettering

Clean the tailgate with rubbing alcohol and let it dry fully before you start. Line the decal up with masking tape along the top edge as a hinge, then peel the backing away and squeegee the transfer tape down from the center outward. Work air bubbles toward the edges rather than pressing them flat. Peel the transfer tape slowly at a low angle, pulling back on itself so the lettering stays put. Wait a day before washing the truck, and avoid high-pressure spray directly on the edges for the first while. Full step-by-step instructions ship with every order.

Frequently asked questions

How do I send you the name I want on the decal?

Enter your text in the personalization box before adding the decal to your cart. The lettering is cut exactly as you type it, so check spelling and capitalization carefully before ordering.

Will an 18 inch decal fit my tailgate?

An 18 inch decal fits most tailgates as a centered name, though tailgate widths vary by truck. Measure the flat area where you plan to place the lettering and compare it to the decal size before ordering.

Can I remove the decal later?

Yes. Warm the lettering with a hair dryer and peel it away slowly, then clean off any residue with rubbing alcohol. Static cling finishes peel off cleanly with no residue since they use no adhesive.
