What do you use for labels?

[muranternet]

I use Staples (Avery knockoff) return address labels, 80 per page, on a laser printer using a template downloaded from Avery. Very small labels, perfect for my 8-10ml test vials, chem bottles, and pipettes. They stick on fine as long as I wipe down the outside of the vial first.

^^ are you wiping down with rubbing alcohol? do you think that would harm plastic dropper bottles at all?

I'm liking the Dymo and they avery knockoff. I am pretty new to diy but it didn't take me long to figure out I wanted to use glass to make all my juices. Main reasons is one, they are easier to clean and reuse without any lingering residuals from the previous juice, and two, they stand up without any help in my crockpot when steeping. My question is, with the two I mentioned, how hard is it to remove the labels once the bottle is empty and you want to put a new label with the next flavor on

Colored painter's tape and a pen.

Not the cheapest route, but I had some labels made up by this company: Create Custom Stickers, Labels, Tattoos and Decals at StickerYou

They are self-stick water-proof vinyl

These are 1.75" x 1.75" and I put the on 125ml bottles of juice.

Any chance of sharing the recipe of what's in those gorgeous bottles? I'm assuming it's a NET tabacco.....

For test batches I use masking tape. Tried scotch tape and the ink rubbed off it real easily. Once i make a larger batch I will make a label from my p-touch label maker.

Love the ideas folks!

I got sick of using Goo Gone to clean the tape/label residue off my bottles so I got a Brother P-touch labeler

water/juice proof 3/4" tape that leaves no residue, USB to Brother P-Touch editor 5.1 on the 'puter

simple with lots of fonts, pictures & patterns included in the software

+1 for the Brother label printer and their software.

It stores all your labels for easy reprinting too.

Their labels come off 99.8% clean as a whistle too but yet they survive hours in the UC at 150 degrees.

The Dymo labels also come off easily.

No NETs in this (never found any of those 'coil gunkers' that ever had much flavor to them)

The "7 Leaves Ultimate" is FlavourArt

The "Caramel" is Capella

The "Cotton Candy" is TFA

The "Cohiba Cigar" is only available from RTS Vapes under there house brand of flavorings called "Chinese Tobacco Blends" ... Now out of stock, but it should be avail soon ... It is the [only] flavoring I have ever found that actually smells and tastes like a cigar. 30 ml Cohiba Cigar (CT)

LOL - I just Googled Kiaro! labeler from a Vape News Magazine ad.

Here you go - Kiaro! Fast Inkjet Color Label Printer | QuickLabel Systems

(check the price) That'll make some labels

I'm not mixing my own, but I do transfer what we get in some awful plastic bottles into the eye dropper glass bottles that we've cleaned and saved up since starting vaping, so I simply use a custom made label that I print onto Avery mailing labels. I didn't have to go fancy with my labels but I couldn't sleep one night so I sat up at my computer working on making labels that looked professional.

I'd show them but my wife and I have the desire/fantasy to getting into e-liquid manufacturing/mixing for sale if we can ever get a loan big enough to do it right so I don't want to give away our name or our new logo. Anyway, Avery labels are great as they have all came off cleanly when we have emptied out a tank and it's time to stick a new one on it.

Before we moved we used the Dynmo (or however it's spelled) label maker. Thankfully it was misplaced as when we first got it, the wife went crazy around the house labeling where everything needs to be, kitchen cupboards, check, bathroom, check, garage, check, My Home Office... Whoa... not so fast there little love.

Well what are you waiting for? If you need to save money, you can make your own juice for as little as $0.03 per ml. Read the stickies (at least the safety-related ones) and then start a thread with any questions you might have.

[edit] If you start making your own, then you will have a better idea whether this is something you would like to do for a living, and what it would take to get set up. With that said, unless you see a strong local demand, do think hard about it before taking out a loan. It seems like the market is pretty crowded to me, at least online, and many of us expect the FDA to turn this whole game on its ear in the not too distant future. But that is even more reason to DIY; you can get enough nicotine to last several years right now for not a whole lot of money.

I've got some glass etching cream in the mail - planning on making some nice engraved labels on something like this:

Glass Decanter Bottle Shape 750 Ml | eBay

How does it compare? Would you rank it as a similar to a medium bodied cigar? This is defiantly what I'm trying next

 

[Flt Simulation]

I would say like a medium bodied cigar

You really don't need the caramel flavoring in it ... or you may try only 2% caramel at first (and see if that's enough). The caramel just adds a little "RY4" type flavor.
