How to Apply — Step by Step
Place Starling liner-side down. DO NOT reverse your design. Blade 45°/60°, force 5–15, offset 0.250, speed 10. Run a test cut first.
Starling’s improved weeding makes fine scripts and tiny letterforms release cleanly. Use a weeding hook for internal cutouts.
Remove paper liner from application tape, place over weeded design, burnish firmly from center out, then lift — design comes with the tape.
Clean with 70% IPA and a lint-free cloth. Dry completely. Critical on drinkware — oils under the adhesive reduce dishwasher longevity.
Position and burnish firmly. Peel tape at a low angle. Allow 72 hours before first dishwasher cycle or outdoor exposure.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions — EasyPSV Starling Graphite
What makes Siser EasyPSV Starling different from EasyPSV Permanent?
EasyPSV Starling is the upgraded successor to EasyPSV Permanent, co-developed by Siser and Avery Dennison. Starling is dishwasher safe up to 80 washes on the top rack. Weeding performance is improved for fine scripts and details. Most colors are now matte. The branded liner confirms genuine Starling film.
Is EasyPSV Starling dishwasher safe?
Yes — up to 80 washes on the top rack with heat dry, validated on glass, porcelain, and stainless steel. A 72-hour dwell time after application is required before the first dishwasher cycle. Skipping the cure period significantly reduces adhesion.
What surfaces does EasyPSV Starling adhere to?
Glass, porcelain, stainless steel, ceramic, metal, plastic, painted wood, and acrylic. NOT for painted drywall or latex walls, near flame or direct heat, microwave, or the bottom dishwasher rack.
What cutter settings should I use?
45° or 60° blade, force 5–15, offset 0.250, speed 10. Always run a test cut first — settings vary by cutter model.
Is EasyPSV Starling safe for children’s products?
No — NOT CPSIA certified. Do not use on children’s products, toys, or items requiring CPSIA safety certification.
Can Starling be used for outdoor and boat graphics?
Yes — rated 3–6 years outdoor with saltwater resistance. Suitable for porch signs, vehicle decals, boat name graphics, and marine applications.
How does Graphite differ from Black Cat for masculine drinkware and automotive applications?
Graphite is a dark gray — it reads as sophisticated and understated rather than bold. Black Cat is pure black — it reads as premium and stealth. For automotive blackout and goth/Halloween aesthetics, Black Cat is correct. For modern masculine drinkware, professional corporate gifts, and contemporary industrial brand graphics where dark-but-not-black creates a more refined feel, Graphite is the better choice.
