What paper stocks can I choose for vinyl labels?

Vinyl labels are built for durability, and the stock you pick changes how they handle moisture, sun, and abrasion. Most come in a handful of core options plus specialty finishes.

• White vinyl: The all-purpose choice with a solid, opaque background for bold color.
• Clear vinyl: A see-through film for a no-label look on glass, bottles, and windows.
• Matte vinyl: A glare-free surface that reads well under bright light.
• Gloss vinyl: A shiny finish that makes colors pop.
• Specialty films: Metallic and other finishes for a premium look.

Each stock resists water and wear a little differently, so ordering free samples to compare them in person is the safest way to choose before a full run.
