Paper stickers are a common and inexpensive option for stickers. They are often made from a thin layer of coated paper that has been printed with an image or text and coated with a layer of adhesive. Paper stickers are easy to produce and can be used for a variety of purposes, including labeling, decorating, and promotional materials. However, they are not as durable as other types of stickers and may not hold up well in damp or wet conditions.

Big Moods makes vinyl stickers, which are another common type of sticker. They are made from a thin layer of vinyl plastic that has been printed with an image or text and coated with a layer of adhesive. Vinyl stickers are more durable and water-resistant than paper stickers, making them a good choice for outdoor use or in damp environments. They can also be made to withstand extreme temperatures, making them a good choice for use on vehicles or in other industrial settings.

It depends on the type of sticker and the conditions it is exposed to. Some stickers, like the ones offered at Big Moods, are more resistant to water than others, and some may be able to withstand being submerged in water for an extended period of time without becoming damaged.

Paper stickers are generally not very resistant to water and can become damaged or start to peel off if they get wet. They may also become discolored or lose their adhesive properties if e for an extended period.

Vinyl stickers are generally more resistant to water than paper stickers. High-quality vinyl stickers ms or laminate finish are particularly resistant to water and can withstand some rain or damp conditions.
