These products are digital downloads. No physical decal sheet is shipped. Each listing shows the exact artwork, file contents, intended scale and any casting-specific fit information for that design.

Delivery and shipping: Digital files are available through Your Decal Downloads after payment; no physical decal sheet is shipped. Eligible U.S. orders of physical products totaling $100 or more receive free shipping automatically. Review the final options and total at checkout.

What each download includes

  • The printable PDF artwork identified on the product page.
  • The page size, artwork dimensions and included designs stated in that listing.
  • Any casting, side, scale or orientation notes that apply to that exact design.

The purchase does not include a printed decal sheet, waterslide paper, printer, ink, model, paint, clear finish or tools. Review the individual product before buying because file contents and usage permissions vary by design.

How to choose the right design

  • Match the subject first. A nominal 1:64 scale does not make one decal fit every Hot Wheels, Matchbox or other diecast casting.
  • Check the intended body and side. Compare the listed dimensions with the actual panel, wheel openings, shut lines, curves and raised trim.
  • Choose paper for the artwork and body color. Clear film lets the paint show through but ordinary home printers do not print opaque white. White film supplies a white base, and every untrimmed area remains white.
  • Follow the exact paper instructions. Waterslide paper must match the printer technology and may require sealing before soaking. Do not substitute sticker paper, printable vinyl, sublimation paper or heat-transfer paper.

Print and test before using decal paper

  1. Save the supplied file and open it in software that preserves physical dimensions. Use the PDF—not the product photograph or a screenshot—as the print master.
  2. Select the paper size loaded in the printer and print at Actual Size / 100%. Turn off Fit to Page, Shrink to Fit, automatic scaling and borderless enlargement.
  3. Print on ordinary paper first. Cut out the test shapes and compare each one with the intended model panel. Check both sides separately.
  4. Confirm whether the exact file and paper require normal or mirrored printing. Do not mirror artwork that is already reversed.
  5. Make a small color, water and adhesion test using the same printer, ink, paper and painted surface planned for the finished model.

Do not stretch the artwork independently in width or height. If a phone print screen cannot preserve the required size, use a desktop print application instead.

Basic waterslide application

  1. Work on a clean, smooth and fully cured painted surface.
  2. Print on the correct coated side and let the ink dry for the time required by the paper. Apply a compatible protective coating only when that paper requires it.
  3. Trim one dry design, keeping any intentional white area that belongs in the artwork.
  4. Soak the piece in clean water according to the paper instructions. Do not force a design that has not released from its backing.
  5. Support the wet film with the backing paper, place it in the correct orientation and make small adjustments without stretching it.
  6. Gently remove trapped water and air from the center toward the edges, then let the decal dry completely before handling or testing a compatible finish.

Complete the full process on a similarly painted sample before decorating an important model. Paint, ink, paper, decal solutions and clear finishes can react differently, so one successful material combination does not prove that every combination is safe.

Frequently asked questions

Where do I get the PDF after purchasing?

Use Your Decal Downloads with the order number and checkout email. Eligible files appear after payment is complete. Save a local copy after downloading.

Will a 1:64 decal fit every Hot Wheels or Matchbox?

No. Castings, body panels and tooling revisions differ. Use the dimensions and intended-model information on the exact listing, then complete the plain-paper fit test.

Can I use a home printer?

Only when the waterslide paper supports that printer technology and feed system. Confirm whether the paper is made for inkjet, laser or both. Ordinary CMYK home printers do not produce opaque white ink.

Do I need spray sealer, a cutting machine or heat?

Some inkjet waterslide papers require a compatible sealing coat before soaking; some products use a different process. Follow the exact paper instructions. Hand-cutting tools are enough for many designs, and model decals should air-dry rather than being baked or heat-pressed.

Can I redistribute the file or sell printed decal sheets?

Not unless the exact listing grants that permission. Buying a download does not automatically transfer the artwork or grant the right to redistribute the digital file or sell printed sheets.

Are downloaded digital files refundable?

After a digital decal PDF has been downloaded, the purchase is generally nonrefundable except when the file is defective or inaccessible, or applicable law requires otherwise. Review the Refund Policy.

Complete the custom build

Pair the artwork with DIY Hot Wheels kits, DIY Matchbox kits, or wheels, rubber tires and wheel-swap parts. These are separate physical products and are not included with a decal download.
