WIS 171 (Wisconsin) (Road Sign) Sticker: Design Description

This sticker presents a faithful representation of the WIS 171 road sign, a visual emblem of Wisconsin State Trunk Highway 171. The design captures the essence of this scenic, winding road through the state's Driftless Area.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The artwork adheres precisely to the official specifications for Wisconsin state highway markers. The design is dominated by a clean, bright white square, providing a neutral and easily recognizable backdrop. Encircling this field is a thin, crisp black border, which defines the sign's shape and gives the design a strong visual outline.

The focal point of the design is the number "171," rendered in a bold, black, centered font. The simplicity of this element is key, ensuring immediate legibility and visual clarity. The dark numerals stand out strongly against the white background, ensuring quick recognition for drivers and road users.

Meaning and Symbolism

The sticker's design is inherently symbolic, embodying the spirit of exploration and travel within Wisconsin. The white square is instantly recognizable to those familiar with Wisconsin's roadways, signaling a journey along a specific state highway. The black border creates a defined visual space, mirroring the clearly defined path of the road itself.

The "171" is more than just a number; it represents a specific route, a connection between places like Ferryville and Boaz. It invites the viewer to imagine the scenic beauty of the Driftless Area, the rolling hills, and challenging drives that characterize Highway 171. The sticker becomes a visual memento of this drive and its location in the beautiful state of Wisconsin.

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.
