HSM-49 "Scorpions" Holographic Die-Cut Vinyl Decal Design

This striking holographic decal pays tribute to Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 49, the U.S. Navy's "Scorpions." The design captures the squadron's essence, reflecting its critical role in maritime operations.

Visual Elements & Representation

The centerpiece of the design is the squadron's namesake, a scorpion, rendered with sharp lines and a dynamic pose, symbolizing the squadron's swift and decisive strike capabilities. The scorpion's tail, poised for action, underscores HSM-49's readiness to engage in anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare.

The addition of the MH-60R Seahawk helicopter subtly integrated within the artwork, further reinforces the squadron's identity. The helicopter, the squadron's primary aircraft, represents the versatile airborne capabilities HSM-49 provides for protecting fleets and projecting naval power. The inclusion provides immediate recognition for those familiar with the squadron.

Color & Effect

The use of a holographic finish adds a dynamic dimension to the design. The iridescent sheen reflects light, shifting and changing colors depending on the viewing angle. This effect symbolizes the multifaceted nature of the squadron's missions and the ever-changing environments in which they operate. The holographic effect is both eye-catching and representative of the high-tech, advanced capabilities of the unit.

Symbolism & Meaning

The overall design is a symbol of strength, precision, and the dedication of the men and women of HSM-49. It signifies their commitment to defending maritime interests worldwide. This decal is a visual representation of their role in naval operations. Its imagery evokes a feeling of pride in the squadron's heritage and mission.

Holographic vinyl decals with a high-contrast rainbow sheen, printed with eco-friendly inks on premium, weather-rated film. Waterproof, UV-protected, and available in five sizes.

Built to turn heads and hold up outdoors. These holographic decals use premium printable vinyl topped with a UV-protective laminate. The film is rated for multi-year outdoor exposure, so the color stays bold and the surface resists scuffs and sun fade.

  • Signature finish: a 99% opaque rainbow effect that shifts with angle and light—clean edges and a smooth, matte-sheen feel rather than a mirror gloss.
  • Waterproof: designed for rain, splashes, and regular washing on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Eco-conscious printing: vibrant, high-density color produced with eco-solvent inks for sharp lines and rich gradients.
  • Color guidance: no white underbase is applied; pure white areas won’t print, and very light tones allow the holographic layer to show through. Darker tones deliver the strongest contrast.
  • Easy-peel backing: release liner separates cleanly for quick, bubble-free placement.

Made for smooth surfaces: glass, metal, coated plastics, sealed laptops, bottles, mirrors, lockers, and windows. Suitable for interiors and short-term exterior spots like vehicle windows or signage.

  1. Prep: clean the area with mild soap and water or 70% isopropyl alcohol; let it dry fully.
  2. Apply: peel, align, and press from the center outward with a card or squeegee to push out air.
  3. Set: allow 24 hours for the adhesive to reach full bond; avoid heavy moisture during this time.

Tips: Avoid heavily textured or silicone-coated surfaces. For curved items, apply slowly and don’t stretch the film.

  • Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth from the center outward to lift dust and grime.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, harsh solvents, or pressure washers that can dull the holographic layer.
  • If placed on bottles or mugs, hand-wash is recommended. Prolonged high-heat cycles can shorten adhesive life.

Available in five sizes. Measurements refer to the longest side of the decal. A “3 inch” option is 3 inches across its largest dimension; the die-cut follows the exact contour for crisp, professional edges.
