We use four Korean premium substrates, all finished with LAMat-AF or Oraguard lamination. Pick the material that matches the surface and the use.

WHITE MATTE

Soft, paper-like finish with no shine. The classic photo sticker look — neutral, quiet, lets your image lead.

Best for:
- Diaries, planners, journals
- Indoor packaging, gift boxes
- Calendar marks, mood boards
- Anywhere you want the photo to read clearly without competing surface effects

Indoor lifespan: 5+ years
Outdoor lifespan: 2-3 years
Waterproof: yes
Dishwasher: top rack only, occasional

PEARL GREY

Warm beige-grey base with a subtle pearl sheen. The most editorial of our four — looks like a fine paper sample, not a sticker.

Best for:
- Tumblers, water bottles
- Phone cases (works on every case color)
- Mirror surfaces, glass
- Outdoor packaging where weather matters
- Photographs with warm tones (skin, wood, golden hour)

Indoor lifespan: 5+ years
Outdoor lifespan: 2-3 years
Waterproof: yes
Dishwasher: top rack only, occasional

SILVER

Metallic silver substrate. Reflective, clean, modern.

Best for:
- Tumblers and water bottles where you want metallic accents
- Cool-toned photographs (winter, monochrome, modern interiors)
- Logo or text stickers paired with photo sheets
- Gift packaging where you want shine

Indoor lifespan: 5+ years
Outdoor lifespan: 2-3 years
Waterproof: yes
Dishwasher: top rack only, occasional

GOLD

Metallic gold substrate. Warm, luxurious, classic.

Best for:
- Special occasions — wedding, anniversary, holiday gift
- Warm-toned photographs (sunset, candlelight, golden hour)
- Tumblers and packaging that need a celebratory accent
- Pet portraits where you want a vintage frame feel

Indoor lifespan: 5+ years
Outdoor lifespan: 2-3 years
Waterproof: yes
Dishwasher: top rack only, occasional

CARE FOR ALL FOUR MATERIALS

- Apply to clean, dry surfaces
- Press firmly across the entire sticker, edges first
- Wait 24 hours before exposing to water if possible
- Hand wash for longest lifespan
- Avoid acetone, harsh solvents, abrasive scrubbing

REMOVAL

Stickers peel cleanly from most surfaces (glass, metal, plastic) within the first year. After 1–2 years on a heavily used surface (tumblers, water bottles), residue may remain — a drop of citrus oil or rubbing alcohol clears it.

Not recommended for: porous wood, fabric, anything you cannot clean.

WHICH ONE FOR YOU

- Indoor only, paper-like look → White Matte
- Outdoor or wet surfaces, warm tone → Pearl Grey
- Cool / modern aesthetic, metallic accent → Silver
- Special occasion, warm celebration → Gold
