Best Marker For Writing On Laminate?

[gabagoo]

Tested Sharpies and after 2 or 3 hours I can still get them to smudge.... I don't know if there is anything that can be used...any one have experience with this?

I've got a few customers for whom I use dry erase laminate. Works great, but like all dry erase products, you have to use the right pen!

I don't think anyone will...it was vague. Do you want it to be PERMANENT?

What laminate are you using? Does it have some vandal protection features that might keep ink from curing? Have you tried different laminates?

Do you want it to be PERMANENT?

Just a 3ml laminate for decals that are used on construction helmuts for a short term... They need to put info on them on site. I don't really think it is an issue as I find only when you rub hard the oils in your fingers can cause the ink to spread or ghost... I offered the client clear strips to apply over the writing after they have written on them.

Some varieties of dry erase laminate will take a permanent marker pretty well and then the ink will disappear if you go back over them with a dry erase marker. I want to say 3M works pretty well, but I can't remember for sure.

It sounds like your customer essentially wants something magic.

Try a matt laminate.
