How to Properly Use Reflective Slow Moving Vehicle Sign Stickers
Reflective SMV stickers are essential for safety on slow-moving vehicles, like agricultural and construction machinery, to alert other drivers and reduce collision risk on public roads.



How to Properly Use Reflective SMV Stickers

Positioning: Place the sticker on the vehicle's rear at a height between 2-6 feet for maximum visibility.
Preparation: Clean and dry the area to remove dust or oil before application, ensuring the adhesive bond.
Application: Peel the backing and apply the sticker from the center outward, preventing wrinkles or air bubbles.
Maintenance: Regularly clean the sticker with mild soap and water, especially in muddy or dusty conditions, to keep the surface reflective.

Why Choose Our Reflective Slow Moving Vehicle Sign Stickers?
Our SMV stickers meet stringent FMVSS 276.6 standards, ensuring optimal reflectivity and durability. Built from high-grade materials, these stickers are designed for extended outdoor use, resisting weather and UV exposure.

Key Features of Reflective Slow Moving Vehicle Sign Stickers
Reflectivity Metrics: Our SMV stickers reflect light at a brightness of over 300 cd/lx/m² at observation angles of 0.2° and 5°, exceeding the minimum requirements set by FMVSS 276.6 for nighttime visibility from up to 500 feet. These metrics ensure that drivers can identify slow-moving vehicles from a safe distance, even in poor visibility conditions.





Weather Resistance Data: The vinyl material has been tested in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 70°C and has passed exposure tests for UV, moisture, and abrasion. In these tests, the signs maintained over 90% of their reflectivity after a simulated five-year period of outdoor exposure, confirming their suitability for long-term use on vehicles frequently exposed to extreme weather.

Durability Standards: To meet FMVSS 276.6 and other relevant standards, the stickers feature an industrial-grade adhesive backing that resists peeling and shifting. Our adhesive ensures a bond strength that withstands vibration, high-speed wind, and exposure to mud or water, keeping the sign securely attached to various vehicle surfaces.

Color and Size Options: Available in fluorescent orange with a red reflective border, these stickers offer a distinctive look that complies with regulated color codes for SMV signs. The standard size of 14x16 inches optimizes visibility but customizable sizes are also available for unique vehicle specifications or additional visibility needs.
