One of the reasons that Shurtape 724 is prized as a console labeling tape is because indelible markers like Sharpies don’t smear when they are used to make labels.
Unfortunately, it is not quite that simple.
While Sharpie Marker won’t smear if you let it dry, touching it too soon can create a real mess.
This tape is a “coated” product, which means that it has a top coat that is designed to provide a small level of waterproofing and stain rejection.
That means that the marker ink won’t dry instantly, like it will on a more absorbent surface.
Fortunately, ink will dry to an indelible label in just a few seconds. It is worth the wait.
