Vinyl for fire extinguisher

[berthomier]

Hi everyone,
I have to make a few labels on silver vinyl for fire extinguishers for a company.
The labels they used to order had a special property.
If you write on it with a pen with a slight pressure, even if the ink disappeared under bad conditions, the date could still be seen like if it was engraved.
Do you have any idea what kind of vinyl could be used for this kind of application?
Thanks a lot.
PS: Sorry if I'm not totally clear but my mother tongue is french and may have a littles difficulties in English.

It's actually a adhesive backed aluminum foil. We screen print them for a number of companies who either type or write their serial numbers on them.

I believe the material you are referring to is sold by Hyatt's Sign Supply, but I can't think of the name or find it on their website. Might try giving them a call.

Thanks for the info,
As I only have small quantities to print , it's not worth ordering it to new caledonia.
Thanks again for the quick response.
