~ michael... to answer your question...

the decals are made from thermal imagining produced by a professional graphics company. the material is made from oracal and is designed for outdoor signs with a self-adhesive backing. the product has a 5 year plus life span for wear. it's extremely durable yet pliable enough to wrap or contour edges - i had mine emblems on my car for over 4 years without any issue. i live in ohio and drove my car year round in some harsh elements... including drive thru carwashes, etc.

hope this information is helpful.
