Plastic License Plates, Custom-Designed Free, Tough High-Gloss Polyethylene
Item #40255: 12x6”, .055-Gauge Medium-Duty, Spot-Color

Note: “Spot-color” is
the least expensive volume-printing method, using separate individual
colors rather than the full color spectrum.
For even less-expensive plastic plates — targeted at light-duty or shorter-term use, such as for auto dealerships — see item #40235 made with thinner .035-gauge polyethylene. Or see our full line of plastic and other plates.
Standard features
- Designed free by our experienced
designers in 3 business days, except when art is complex. In other words...
- No canned designs or crude online layout interface, as you might find elsewhere. No need to shoehorn your name or motto into a predefined space it doesn’t fit, or to design your own plate using primitive online tools. Instead, tell us what you want, or email your logo or idea. Our designers can start from anything, or from any design on the site you like, and go from there, subject to your review. Get the professional design you want — and the long-term promotional benefit that goes with it.
- Unusual high-gloss plastic finish that doesn’t look cheap. With a
finish as glossy as aluminum tags, these plates project an
appearance that’s
a cut above common matte (non-gloss) plastic tags. Combined with a
professional custom tag design provided free like those here, your
plastic license plates can do their job without making
you look cheap... whether used as a church or school fundraiser, as
auto dealer tags, or as a promotional giveaway.
Another LeewardPro bonus you won’t
find just anywhere. Ask for your no-obligation sample.
- Made of polyethylene — 2 to 3 times the life of polystyrene plates. Polyethylene holds up in better condition over its life than cheaply made polystyrene as well. Won’t yellow from cumulative time in the sun or grow brittle and potentially crack in cold weather with age like the latter. Look your best by avoiding this common issue with plastic license plates.
- Screen-printed with 3 to 5-year non-fade inks. The
traditional “gold standard” for outdoor durability, screen-printing
also is least expensive when it comes to volume quantities.
- Full-color printing available using
industrial inkjet.
- Full-bleed printing available at no extra charge.
- Select from 15 standard ink colors (ink
color chart). Custom/ PMS ink color match
available for additional charge (see further below).
- No setup fees.

about screen-printed plates and their durability.
Why we carry only polyethylene
plastic instead of cheaper polystyrene, as discussed in our “Aluminum
vs. Plastic” article. (Short answer: polystyrene deteriorates
quickly.)
Turnaround/shipping
- Standard production time is 2–3 weeks once
you’ve reviewed and approved your plate artwork.
- Shipping
time and cost are extra. See footer area of price chart for shipping weight, shipping point zip code, and carrier used when estimating shipping cost. Or we can figure the cost if you need an exact quote.
Extra-cost options
- Custom/
PMS color match available for $25 extra each. More
details including color chart.
- Rush turnaround available if room in our production
schedule, for extra cost. (Contact us for additional amount — depends on circumstances.) Rush orders must be paid by credit
or debit card.
How to count the number
of ink colors
Does white or black count toward
the number of ink colors? Black counts as a color since on
white bla nks — which
are used for these plates — black is printed with ink. White
doesn’t count as an ink color, since the color of the white plate
surface itself is left unprinted for areas that need to be white.
Background colors other than white are achieved by
printing a flood of colored ink on the white tag bla
nk. In these cases, the background color counts as an ink color,
but again, do not count white lettering or artwork that’s “reversed
out” of the background color. (“Reversed out” means
areas where the plate surface is unprinted so the plate substrate color
forms the letter shapes or artwork.)
