Texas FM 1196 (Texas) (Road Sign) Sticker: Design Overview

This vinyl kiss-cut decal authentically recreates the classic Texas Farm to Market (FM) road sign for FM 1196. The design is immediately recognizable to anyone familiar with Texas roadways, representing the state's extensive network of rural routes that connect communities and facilitate agricultural commerce.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The artwork adheres precisely to the standard Texas road sign design. The primary element is a black square background, providing a bold and stark contrast. A white outline of the state of Texas is centered within this square, immediately establishing the location the sign represents.

Within the white outline of Texas, the words "FARM ROAD" are presented in crisp, white text, clearly denoting the type of road. Below this text, the route number "1196" is displayed prominently in black, allowing for instant identification of the specific FM road.

Meaning and Symbolism

The sign's design carries considerable symbolic weight. The Texas outline signifies the state itself, while the black and white color scheme, coupled with the standardized font, represents the official nature of Texas roadways and the infrastructure supporting travel and trade throughout the state. The inclusion of the "FARM ROAD" designation specifically connects the route to Texas's agricultural heritage, and its rural nature.

This sticker design encapsulates the spirit of Texas roads and the long history of the state's network of Farm to Market roads.

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.
