Brig. Gen. Wm Hays 001 (U.S. Civil War) Sticker Design

This vinyl kiss-cut decal features a striking visual representation of Brigadier General William Hays, a significant figure in the Union Army during the American Civil War. The design likely employs a portrait, perhaps derived from a period photograph or a historically accurate artistic rendering.

The imagery centers on conveying Hays's distinguished military service. The depiction of Hays is probably presented in his Union officer's uniform, complete with insignia that signifies his rank of brigadier general. Details like epaulettes, buttons, and potentially a sword or other accoutrements can further reinforce the historical accuracy and military context.

The color palette might utilize sepia tones or muted colors to evoke the period, emphasizing the historical setting. Subtle use of shadows and highlights can create depth and bring the portrait to life. The background could be a simple solid color or incorporate elements that allude to his military career, such as a battlefield scene, an artillery piece, or the Army of the Potomac's symbol to represent his service.

The overall design seeks to capture the spirit of a dedicated professional officer. The visual presentation of Hays embodies the qualities of leadership, resilience, and service during a pivotal era in American history. The artwork's primary intention is to honor and commemorate the contributions of Brigadier General William Hays during the American Civil War.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
