US Marine W 4 Shoulderboard Dress Decal: Design Description

This vinyl kiss-cut decal showcases the distinctive insignia of a U.S. Marine Corps Chief Warrant Officer 4 (CWO4), specifically designed for the dress uniform shoulderboard.

Visual Elements

The central visual element is a depiction of the iconic W-4 shoulderboard. The background of the design is scarlet/red, a color traditionally associated with the Marine Corps.

The border of the shoulderboard design is trimmed with gold, emphasizing the rank's importance and formality, as it is worn on service dress coats and formal dress uniforms.

At the heart of the design are four gold bars or branch-specific devices prominently displayed in the center. These elements are the definitive identifier of the CWO4 rank, denoting a senior warrant officer within the Marine Corps hierarchy.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design represents the rank of Chief Warrant Officer 4, a senior technical expert and leader within the U.S. Marine Corps. The four gold bars symbolize the individual's achieved rank. The presence of this insignia signifies expertise, leadership, and a significant level of responsibility within their designated specialty, reflecting years of dedicated service and specialized knowledge.

The overall composition is a direct and visually accurate representation of the official Marine Corps uniform insignia, designed to be instantly recognizable and convey the wearer's rank and status.

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.
