Hi everyone,
I agree with Bill, but take it one step further. Avery also makes special
'weatherproof' nylon labels, so I use those instead. I also use the
labels from the Paw Paw Everlast Label Company, but they're pretty much
the same thing.
I've had labels printed for 6+ years in zone 5a along a driveway. They've
been kicked, snowblown, and get lots of sun in the summer months, yet
they haven't faded in the least.
