What is the best type of vinyl to use for custom window graphics?
If you plan on having your new vinyl window graphics in service for 2 years or more, you should choose genuine “DuraCast 2 mil thickness, High-Performance Vinyl Film”. DuraCast vinyl window graphics are so durable, they are rated for 7-10 years outdoors, even through multiple window washes. In fact, DuraCast vinyl has a higher rating and longer warranty than 3M Brand vinyl. However, if you know for certain your window will be in service less than 2 years, feel free to choose the cheaper intermediate vinyl instead. There’s no point in buying more than you need.
