USCG Signalman Second Class Insignia Decal - Design Overview

This decal features the distinguished insignia of a United States Coast Guard Signalman Second Class (SN2), a Petty Officer Second Class (E-5) specializing in visual communications.

Key Design Elements and Symbolism

The design prominently showcases a perched eagle, often referred to as a "crow," positioned at the top. This eagle symbolizes Petty Officer status within the U.S. Coast Guard, representing the wearer's rank and achieved leadership role.

Beneath the eagle, two chevrons point downwards, signifying the pay grade of E-5. The chevrons directly correlate to the enlisted pay structure, clearly indicating the wearer's experience and rank within the Coast Guard.

Sandwiched between the eagle and the chevrons is the defining element of this design: the rating symbol of a Signalman. This symbol features two crossed signal flags, identifying the wearer's specific specialty. Signalmen are experts in visual communications, responsible for flags, lights, and semaphore signaling.

The overall composition is a clear and concise representation of the Signalman Second Class insignia, immediately recognizable for its distinct military rank and specialized expertise within the United States Coast Guard.

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.
