Turkish Cypriot Security Force OR-5a Decal Design

This vinyl kiss-cut decal showcases the rank insignia of an Astsubay Kıdemli Çavuş (Senior Sergeant / Staff Sergeant equivalent) within the Turkish Cypriot Security Force (KTSF). The design is a direct representation of the military rank, emphasizing its significance and role.

Visual Elements

The central element of the design is the chevron arrangement. It features three prominent chevrons pointing upwards, a symbol of rank progression and authority. The clean lines and bold angles of the chevrons convey a sense of strength, discipline, and hierarchy within the military structure.

Additional, smaller symbols, or markings that might accompany the chevrons (if included in the actual insignia design) would further specify seniority and experience within the rank, highlighting the individual's time and dedication in service.

Symbolism and Meaning

The three chevrons are symbolic of the Senior Sergeant's position as a senior Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO). This represents the responsibilities they hold in training, supervising, and leading enlisted personnel. The design signifies experience, leadership, and the crucial role this rank plays in the day-to-day operation and effectiveness of the KTSF.

The design clearly communicates the individual's rank and status within the military organization, serving as an instant visual identifier of their position and authority.

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.
