They hold up very well outdoors. I have them in both black and white, and inch and half-inch sizes. <br /> <br />There are several tricks to using them. First, use blue painter's masking tape to make sure you put them on in a straight line. <br /> <br />Second, follow the instructions and mix a drop of detergent into some water and apply a very small amount to the surface where the letters are to be placed. When you get them where you want them, wick away excess water with the edge of a paper towel. Then you can remove the blue tape too. <br /> <br />Regards, <br />Bill C. <br />South Jersey <br />
