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.
