I want to hear from you guys what labeling system you are using to mark your bottles of diluted product.

I am considering buying a brother p-touch labeling system and have seen that they make a tape that is water/liquid resistant. Does anybody have experience with this? Recommend it?

Swanic --- looks like you have attractive labels (from your ceriglass posting)...what are you using?

Have used the sharpie and the blue tape...just thought I may get something that looks pretty.

Thanks much.

This is the machine I use:

Got it at Costco for like $30. I'm quite happy with it and labels are very durable. They are vinyl and aren't really affected by harsh chemicals. These labels are a few years old:

I just use my little Brother Ptouch. Keeps all of my bottles looking "sharp" :)
 
Using the P-Touch labeling system here as well. The labels are very durable.

I was thinking the same thing, especially now that I prefer specific bottles/sprayers and have different concentrations of several products. Plus it's something that will be easy to talk to wife into spending money on :)

I was printing up labels, taping them onto bottles with clear packaging tape. But the tape comes off after some use.



What model is that swanic? I amazoned brother p-touch and there are several models.
 
I've used many different label makers at work. Most haven't lasted very long. Our original P-Touch is still kickin. Love that thing.

Meguiar's DUB Color Changing Wheel Cleaner is the one bagged with a rubber band tightly around it

Accidentally sprayed some inside the car....can't let that happen again!

Kyle, which are you using? Like how the label is clear and just the lettering shows. Almost like decal lettering.

That's a really good idea to put the label on the sprayer! Those are the same ones I have too.

I will be copying that idea!
 
i'm gangster.

i clean the bottle with a paper towel and IPA. then wrap a piece of this nice packing tape i have around it. i write on it with sharpie then wrap another piece of tape around the first one. i use these heavy duty plastic bottles i get from Clean Chem, a regional chemical distro, i believe they are Tolco bottles...and haven't had the tape come off yet. some of the bottles i've had labeled like that for 5-6 years, even ones i use most often and have APC in them.

I believe it is the same model pictured earlier in the thread

Most larger office supply stores sell the printer and various options for the printing tape...black w/ white print, white w/ black print, clear, colors, etc

The flat section on the top of all my sprayers is 5/8"
 
Your so organized Steve. I'll hire you to organize my garage. I'm terrible at organization
