I guess most reflective is not meant to be brinted on. To get a good result, I believe you depend on the ink to partially dissolve the media you are printing on. The stronger the solvent, the better the ink dissolves the media, ie the ink goes deeper. SS2 ink is low solvent, and dissolves pretty well the medias we regularly use, but will still wear off without lam.

Guess some of these reflective medias are very sturdy, maybe even dirty or greasy, to the point that the ink does not stick, kinda like waterbase ink on non coated media.

We get good results on Oracal reflective, have not tried others.

What is the Avery code? All Avery NV series have imprinted backing. I have seen some very good results on those materials and on Dusted glass vinyl also. I have also print on economy Avery 546 silver metalic and get great results.
