Looking to add a personal touch to your backyard parties, BBQs, or holidays? Custom DIY yard signs are a fun, affordable way to decorate. With Plasti Dip, you can do it all with color, creativity… And zero commitment!
Plasti Dip’s removable, weather-resistant rubber coating makes it perfect for outdoor decoration projects. When used with stencils, it’s easy to create clean, bold lettering and designs that peel off when you’re ready for something new.
Why Use Plasti Dip for Yard Signs?
Traditional paint can chip, fade, or require sanding and sealing. Plasti Dip sprays on smoothly, dries into a flexible rubber coating, and removes cleanly. It’s ideal for temporary customization and reuse.
With a wide range of colors available, including gloss, matte, and metallics, you can design signs for:
- Summer birthday parties
- Neighborhood BBQs
- Graduation celebrations
- Seasonal decor (4th of July, Memorial Day, & more!)
Making DIY Yard Signs with Plasti Dip
What you’ll need:
- Blank sign board (wood, plastic, or foam-core)
- Painter’s tape
- Stencils or adhesive vinyl letters
- Plasti Dip (choose your colors!)
- Outdoor space for spraying
- Gloves & drop cloths
Step-by-Step
- Prep Your Surface
Make sure your sign board is clean and dry. Lightly sand glossy materials for better adhesion. - Apply Your Stencils
Position stencils or tape off areas for custom graphics. Use vinyl lettering for names, messages, or event titles. - Spray with Plasti Dip
Apply 4–6 light coats of Plasti Dip, allowing each coat to dry for 15–30 minutes. Don’t rush! Plasti Dip builds up a peelable layer best when applied gradually. - Remove Stencils & Let Dry
Carefully peel off stencils while the top layer is still slightly soft. Let the finished piece dry fully for 4+ hours before placing outside. - Display with Pride
Stick it in the lawn, lean it against a tree, or mount it near your driveway. Rain? Sun? No problem—Plasti Dip holds up!
Ready for the Next Party? Just Peel & Redesign
One of the best parts of creating DIY yard signs with Plasti Dip is the ability to reuse your materials. When the season changes or the event’s over, simply peel off your design and start fresh. With your favorite colors, some stencils, and a can of Plasti Dip. That’s all you’ll need to take your summer yard décor to the next level!
