USS Stump DD 978 Holographic Decal - Design Overview

This die-cut vinyl decal presents a dynamic and eye-catching holographic design, centered around the USS Stump (DD-978), a proud vessel of the United States Navy's Spruance-class destroyers.

Visual Elements and Representation

The artwork focuses on capturing the essence of the destroyer's power and legacy. The focal point is the ship itself, rendered with detailed lines, hinting at its sleek design and formidable armament. The design subtly emphasizes the bow and superstructure of the vessel. The inclusion of the hull number "DD-978" prominently displays the ship's unique identifier.

The use of a holographic finish introduces an element of movement and depth. The iridescent effect reflects and refracts light, creating a shimmering appearance that symbolizes the ship's active service and the reflections on the water. The shimmering finish captures the dynamism of the ship slicing through the waves.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design serves as a tribute to the USS Stump's service, particularly its role as an anti-submarine warfare (ASW) platform. The rendering of the ship symbolizes the spirit of the U.S. Navy and the dedication of the crew who served aboard. The design honors the ship's history and the important missions it undertook during the Cold War and beyond.

The incorporation of holographic elements amplifies this tribute, acting as a visual representation of both the ship's power and its proud heritage. The decal is more than just a depiction of the ship; it embodies the ship's long history of service and the brave individuals who manned it.

Holographic vinyl decals with a high-contrast rainbow sheen, printed with eco-friendly inks on premium, weather-rated film. Waterproof, UV-protected, and available in five sizes.

Built to turn heads and hold up outdoors. These holographic decals use premium printable vinyl topped with a UV-protective laminate. The film is rated for multi-year outdoor exposure, so the color stays bold and the surface resists scuffs and sun fade.

  • Signature finish: a 99% opaque rainbow effect that shifts with angle and light—clean edges and a smooth, matte-sheen feel rather than a mirror gloss.
  • Waterproof: designed for rain, splashes, and regular washing on smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Eco-conscious printing: vibrant, high-density color produced with eco-solvent inks for sharp lines and rich gradients.
  • Color guidance: no white underbase is applied; pure white areas won’t print, and very light tones allow the holographic layer to show through. Darker tones deliver the strongest contrast.
  • Easy-peel backing: release liner separates cleanly for quick, bubble-free placement.

Made for smooth surfaces: glass, metal, coated plastics, sealed laptops, bottles, mirrors, lockers, and windows. Suitable for interiors and short-term exterior spots like vehicle windows or signage.

  1. Prep: clean the area with mild soap and water or 70% isopropyl alcohol; let it dry fully.
  2. Apply: peel, align, and press from the center outward with a card or squeegee to push out air.
  3. Set: allow 24 hours for the adhesive to reach full bond; avoid heavy moisture during this time.

Tips: Avoid heavily textured or silicone-coated surfaces. For curved items, apply slowly and don’t stretch the film.

  • Wipe with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth from the center outward to lift dust and grime.
  • Avoid abrasive pads, harsh solvents, or pressure washers that can dull the holographic layer.
  • If placed on bottles or mugs, hand-wash is recommended. Prolonged high-heat cycles can shorten adhesive life.

Available in five sizes. Measurements refer to the longest side of the decal. A “3 inch” option is 3 inches across its largest dimension; the die-cut follows the exact contour for crisp, professional edges.
