    Care & Application

    How to Apply Your Sticker

    1. Clean the surface with mild soap or isopropyl alcohol and let it dry completely.
    2. Peel the sticker carefully and position it lightly.
    3. Smooth from the centre outward to remove air bubbles.
    4. Press firmly around the edges.
    5. Allow 24 hours before washing or heavy use.   

    Preparing the surface.

    • Clean with mild soap or isopropyl alcohol— removes oils, fingerprints, and dust that weaken adhesion.
    • Dry fully — even tiny moisture films can cause bubbling.
    • Avoid glass cleaners — many contain silicone, which reduces stickiness.

     Applying the sticker

    • Peel slowly to avoid touching the adhesive with fingers.
    • Position lightly first — vinyl lets you “float” it before pressing down.
    • Start from the centre and smooth outward with a card or thumb to push out air.
    • Press firmly around the edges — this is where lifting usually begins.

    ⏳ Aftercare for best results

    A few small habits make the sticker last much longer.

    • Give it 24 hours before washing, handling heavily, or exposing to moisture.
    • Hand‑wash bottles or mugs — laminated vinyl is tough, but dishwashers vary in heat and detergents.
    • Avoid extreme heat (car dashboards, radiators) during the first day while the adhesive cures.

    The year is  1977, when living rooms across Britain and beyond were transformed into pixel-powered playgrounds. Known originally as the Video Computer System (VCS) ,the Atari 2600 wasn’t just a home console—it was a revolution. With its woodgrain finish, six tactile switches, and iconic single-button joystick, this pioneering machine brought arcade thrills into the domestic realm and laid the foundation for modern gaming
    Although the Fairchild Channel F,  introduced cartridges in 1976, the Atari 2600 popularized  the radical concept of interchangeable cartridges, allowing players to swap adventures at will. From tank skirmishes in Combat to alien-blasting in Space Invaders, each game was a portal to a new world—simple by today’s standards, but utterly magical at the time.

    Whether you're a collector, a nostalgist, or a newcomer curious about gaming’s roots, this piece is a celebration of the moment when “Have you played Atari today?” became a cultural mantra. The Atari 2600 didn’t just entertain—it inspired generations.
    This is a representation of the Atari 2600 light sixer released in1978, the model released in 1977 would have been the heavy sixer also nicknamed the woody. 
    These stickers are a fun way to show your appreciation and love for the console legend that kickstarted it all back in 1977.

      Extra Information

      Shipping

      Shipping Packing:-

      Please note that the following :- clothing, mugs, coasters and water bottles production are outsourced and will be sent at a different time (together)  to wall art. 

      Most orders up to a certain size will ship in either a small, medium or a large paper mailer.

      The paper postal mailing bags are manufactured from responsible, sustainable sources to comply with FSC certification. The paper is both compostable and degradable, and paper mailers can be easily recycled, making this an extremely eco-friendly option. The weather-proof parcel protects its contents during transit.

      Cardboard boxes are used for orders too bulky for the large paper mailers. They work in just the same way though; clothing items are folded neatly into them, and any products requiring special packaging (such as mugs) which are shipped with your clothing items are packed in their own packaging first before shipping in the box.

      Clothing 

      Clothing Items  are folded neatly into these bags; to save on packing materials and reduce waste we do not pack items into individual bags before they are shipped in these mailers. 

      Mugs

      Each mug ships in a mug box. 

      11oz white and two-toned mugs ship in  single, 2x, 4x or 6x boxes. These are designed specifically for protecting mugs during transit. 

      Other mugs including enamel and travel mugs ship in thinner cardboard boxes. These boxes aren’t weather-resistant so they’re shipped wrapped securely in our bespoke paper mailing bags.

      Delivery (UK)
