I have a client that wants me to print logos on static cling to go on the inside of a window to be read from the outside (does this make sense?).
The artwork doesn't cover too much of the background so there will still be a lot of white static cling material exposed.
Does anyone know if static cling can be attached this way?
Thanks...

What Bob says. We do it all the time with the Edge and also with screen printing on clear static.
If your solvent ink jet printing it may be possible to have enough "stick" left on the print side of white static but I'd sure get a sample from my supplier and test it first.

Make sure you get waiver stating that they may have gray areas and/or bubbles. They look like stink. Cover yourself.

We ink jet print in reverse on clear static then roll a cote of Renon Aquacote white on to back it up. Weed it while it's still wet and you're done.

we have printed with ink jet on the front of white.it will still stick, however if it is left stuck to the window for any period of time without removing it to clean it and the window the ink will stick to the window and pull off of the cling. as for the grey areas the Bruce mentions. . . if you apply with water or application fluid and squeegee down it eliminates the grey and bubble areas. Biggest problem that I have had with them is that most vehicles have tinted windows and they don't show up through them very well. there great on clear glass though.
