I am wondering what other people use to label thier spray bottles ? I have been using Avery labels and just print up whatever I need. Problem is that if it gets wet, then it starts peeling off or the ink starts to run. Any ideas?

different colors for different products (red: dressings / green: cleaners & IPA / blue: ONR QD & Lube / etc)

I use generic labels and clear tape over the writing so it doesn`t bleed or run.

Nope i`ll bet jake just uses black or whatever sharpie he has around at the time. lol ill bet he even goes as far as a piece of masking tape at time then a sharpie. lol got to love us old school guys its not fancy, but it works!:xyxthumbs

LOL yep just a black sharpie... I know my products I have just by looking at them. I only mark them because if I have a helper I need them to be able to grab the right product.

Same here, and I don`t even bother labeling a lot of stuff either. If anybody else ever worked in my shop they`d probably be pretty :confused: about all the unlabeled spray bottles!
I *did* write "OLD" and "NEW" on my bottles of v1.0/v2.0 M105 in nice big letters so I won`t mix `em up (and waste the old stuff)....saves me having to look closely at the labels.
The only containers I`ve color-coded (with different Sharpies) are my Clay boxes; I have a number of different clays, all in the rectangular Sonus boxes, and I wanted an easy way to differentiate between them.

Well the local fire dept. maintains that all chemicals be properly labled as well when used in a business setting. And when I had my shop I had to maintain code. Which was the original reasoning behind it. However since then I`ve laxed on labeling.
