    Re: How do you guys label your bottles?

    I tired shapries and they just wipe off, after a while. my dad has a lable maker so I use that. I type, "ONR 2TBS" so I know the soultion and how much to add. for "APC 2oz 1:15" it works well. I try to make things idiot proof. on my DA pads I write on the backing of the pad and on the side/edge what the pad is for. IE on my suffbuff pads has "compound m105", other pads have "polish m205" and "wax." I suppose I could put the speed settings on there too.

    If I am detailing for 6 hours in a row I might get confused. Or if I haven't detailed in a month I might be confused on what product for what pad. I try to keep things simple.

    On my spray bottles I have one sprayer that is red, and I have some red paint on the bottle itself. I know red means IPA. purple power is well purple, my APC is a light green. Color coding helps too.

    I bought a label maker from Office Depot. It works great!

    I have a label maker.. I just have to find it...

    I use cloth medical tape and a sharpie. I apply the lengh of tape I need to a flat surface, write what I want on it,then peel and stick on the bottle.

    i use a sharpie on the bottle, then wrap a peice of clear packing tape around it (and try not to attatch a piece your fingers touched to the bottle it will peel up), i'm thinking about just getting a paint marker. for pretty good quality squeeze bottles my walmart has them in the "kitchen gadget" aisle for 97cents each(always test lids in the store though)

    I suppose masking tape is the easiest way.

    Re: How do you guys label your bottles?

    A labeler is probably the best way to make it but I hate how the normal ones you can buy are tiny IMO.

    I personally just write on a painters tape with a sharpie and stick it on the bottle. My big ugly hand writing that I can only read

    I am color blind, so it all looks the same to me!

    I hate trying to write nicely on bottles, so i'm going to print labels (on ordinary printer paper) and stick them on with clear packaging tape.
    I print on an Avery Label and cover with the clear packing tape.

    Plain ol sharpie here. I wind up rewriting it every month or so, especially if the IPA or APC gets near it.
