Question
Can I write on the stickers and labels?
Answer
Whether you can write on a sticker or label comes down to its finish. Uncoated and matte surfaces accept pen and marker easily, while glossy and laminated coatings resist ink.
| Finish | Writable? |
|---|---|
| Uncoated / matte | Yes, pen and pencil write cleanly |
| Gloss / laminated | Resists ink, use a permanent marker at best |
If writing on the label is important, choose a matte or uncoated stock.
