Question
Which sticker stock is best for writing on?
Answer
If you need to write on your stickers by hand, choose an uncoated stock. Coated and laminated finishes are designed to resist ink, so pens and markers tend to bead up or smear, while an uncoated surface is porous and absorbs ink and lets it dry in place. You can select the uncoated finish while customizing your order.
- Uncoated stock accepts pen, pencil, and marker, including ballpoint, gel, felt-tip, and permanent markers
- Gloss, matte laminate, and UV coatings repel most inks
- If you also need moisture resistance, a permanent marker works on some coated synthetic films
- Pick the uncoated finish during checkout customization
- Good for name tags, inventory labels, dates, names, batch numbers, and fill-in fields
- Order a sample first to test your exact pen or marker before committing to a full run
