SADC road sign GDS-22 (Angola) (Road Sign) STICKER Vinyl Die-Cut Decal

This design reproduces GDS 22, a regulatory road sign from the SADC Road Traffic Signs Manual, used in Angola to warn drivers that a toll plaza lies ahead.

Visual Elements & Composition

The sign is built from three colours: red, white and black. Its toll plaza symbol is drawn in the standardised iconography of the regional manual, so the image reads at a glance rather than through decoration. The composition is plain and direct, with no ornament competing with the pictogram. Every element exists to be recognised quickly by a driver passing at speed.

Meaning & Symbolism

GDS 22 belongs to the sign system of the Southern African Development Community, whose member states adopted a shared traffic signs manual so that the same symbol carries the same meaning across borders. In Angola, the sign tells motorists to prepare to pay a toll. Its code, GDS 22, identifies it within that regional catalogue, and its meaning rests on convention rather than picture alone: a shared visual language for traffic management and road safety.

Designed for the Object It Sits On

A sticker is cut to its own outline, so the sign's silhouette becomes the edge of the object itself. The red, white and black field holds the eye on its own, without a border or backdrop to frame it. Placed on a surface, the piece works as a small road-safety emblem for anyone who collects transport graphics or travels the SADC corridor and recognises the sign's shape from the road.

Die-cut vinyl decals: precision-cut shapes on premium water-resistant vinyl with a matte laminate and UV protection — built to resist sun, rain and everyday wear for long-lasting use.

These die-cut decals are trimmed exactly to the design, producing crisp edges and a professional finish. They’re made from thick, water-resistant vinyl and finished with a matte UV laminate that reduces glare while protecting colors from fading.

The production process uses eco-solvent inks for dense, even color and a protective overlaminate that helps the decal survive outdoor exposure. Rated for multi-year outdoor life when applied to the right surface, these decals give a clean, matte look without sacrificing durability.

  • Material: premium water-resistant vinyl engineered for weather resistance.
  • Finish: matte laminate that mutes shine and guards against scratches.
  • Print: eco-solvent inks for solid blacks and vivid color depth.
  • Protection: UV laminate extends outdoor life and helps prevent fade.
  • Longevity: rated to last multiple years outdoors under normal conditions.

Die-cut decals adhere best to smooth, non-porous surfaces — glass, metal, coated plastics and finished wood. They work well on bottles, windows, laptops and vehicle windows for short- to medium-term outdoor use.

  1. Prep the surface: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth; for residue use mild soap and water and allow to dry fully.
  2. Peel and position: lift a corner of the liner, align the decal and lay it down slowly, pressing from the center outward.
  3. Seal: smooth the edges with a card or your thumb to ensure full contact and reduce trapping air.

Note: to keep adhesive performance in wet conditions, apply decals to very smooth surfaces (for example: glass). Avoid rough or heavily textured materials where the adhesive can’t form a full bond.

Maintenance is low-effort. Gently wipe decals with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp microfiber and light pressure will clean the surface — dry immediately afterward.

Avoid abrasive pads, strong solvents or power washers; these can scratch the laminate or lift edges. Proper care preserves the matte finish and keeps colors vivid for longer.

Sizes are specified by the longest side. For example, a 4″ decal measures four inches across its greatest dimension. The die-cut follows the artwork’s contour so the decal sits flush with clean, professional edges.

Small variations can occur with intricate outlines, but the listed measurement always reflects the maximum edge-to-edge length for accurate placement planning.
