Karak Chai Metal Enamel Sticker

Most of the drinks designs here lean coffee or matcha. This one does not. A karak chai cup reads instantly to an Indian buyer in a way a latte glass does not, which makes it the natural pick for gifting within the country.

Where this sticker works

• Reusable tumblers and travel mugs (hand wash only)
• Laptop lids and hard laptop shells
• Hard and transparent phone cases
• Planners, journals and desk organisers

Surfaces to avoid: Silicone phone cases, fabric, leather with a soft grain, uncoated kraft card, textured or rubberised surfaces, and anything soft-touch coated. The adhesive needs a smooth, clean, dry surface to key into.

Who it suits

Chai drinkers decorating a tumbler, a laptop, a planner or a phone case.

Frequently asked questions

Will it fade on a tumbler that gets washed?
The colour sits in enamel rather than ink, so it does not fade. Hand wash around it rather than running it through a dishwasher.

How do I apply it so it actually stays on?
Clean the surface with an alcohol wipe and let it dry fully. Peel the backing, position the piece, then press firmly for about thirty seconds. Leave it a full day before exposing it to water.

Will it leave a mark if I take it off?
It is designed to stay where it is placed rather than to be moved. Removal can leave adhesive residue, and on painted or coated surfaces it may lift the finish, so place it deliberately the first time.
