iGage Weatherproof Paper 13"x19" - 50 Sheets

Cannot write underwater with pencil!

Works very well with Epson 3880 printer using Ultrachrome ink, printed maps can be used in rough weather. The paper would be more usable for foldable maps if it would be a little thinner and available in A2 size.

This paper works great in my Epson ultrachrome inkjet printer. Paper is tough and waterproof. It's a bit spendy, but haven't found anything better for printing maps.

We used this for an event that ran the whole month of October, some of the paper worked great, others completely faded, so don't know what happened there?? We did have some rain, and all of it was exposed at some point or another to the rain. For my test print I let it dry for a day, and then ran it under a faucet. Using Epson color ink, the black ran off a little, and so did some of the color, but the ink did set, so image remained, just not as vivid.

I've used this paper with Epson pigment ink printers to make waterproof nautical charts for use on my boat, and wine bottle labels that are impervious to immersion in ice water. The paper is immune to wet environments, and pigment inks do not run. The paper is also tear-proof. I highly recommend this product!

It really works! I printed a test map on my Canon Pro-100 photo printer, let it dry overnight, then submerged it in water... no problems with the map at all. Next I soaked it, folded it in half, then half again before sealing it in a ziploc over night. The next day I pulled it out and the map was totally fine and usable. If you need to print large maps for field use, this is the way to go.
