Question
Can I write or write on 16pt velvet laminated cover paper?
Answer
16pt velvet laminated cover has a smooth, soft coating, and how easily it takes pen or marker ink depends on the specific pen and how much time the ink needs to set. Because writeability varies, the safest step is to test it yourself before committing to a large run.
- Velvet lamination seals the surface, so some inks can smudge or sit on top rather than soak in.
- Get a sample of 16pt velvet laminated stock and try your usual pens on it.
- If writeability is critical, ask about leaving a coating-free write-on panel.
