Can you write on Silk Laminated Business Cards?

Yes, and this is one of silk lamination's practical advantages. Unlike soft-touch or glossy laminated cards, a silk finish accepts ballpoint pen ink without the pen skipping or the ink smearing.

• Ballpoint writes cleanly on the silk surface, so notes stay legible.
• That makes these cards handy at networking events where someone jots a number or meeting date.
• For guaranteed writability, you can also leave the back uncoated as a dedicated note area.
• Let ink dry for a moment, since any coated surface takes slightly longer than plain paper.

If people often write on your cards, silk lamination is one of the more pen-friendly coated finishes available.
