Hi folks!
I've recently acquired a decent sized lot of used blue starbursts that I would like to label.

What would be the best label to use? Since they are used, I'm thinking I should use a very thin label. Some of the chip are pretty worn, can these be labeled? I would like to avoid label to label contact.

Also, should I use vinyl or paper? What are the pros/cons of each?

Thanks for any help or tips!

I have a bunch of paulsons I want to label eventually too. From what I have heard vinyl is the way to go. You may also need to sand down the hotstamp to ensure the label area is smooth and you can't feel the hotstamp through the lable. I am curious to hear what everyone else has to say. CT memeber Steveo labeled a bunch of Paulsons very succesfully. Hopefully he will see this thread and chime in

talk to hogwild, and let him know you want labels for starbursts. he has thin vinyls that are just the right size for the inlay. and yeah you will have to sand down the hotstamp.

a little fingernail polish remover will take the gold foil right off

Didn't i see that Acetone melts Paulsons!?

Thanks guys. I e-mailed hogwild about the lables. I don't need to worry about the hot stamps as most are semi worn off already. These are used chips in average condition. Once I get a few labels, I'll see how they look and feel.

These are labels from hogwild. They are very thin and very durable.

Does hogwild do most of the design work as well, or do you get another chiptalker to help?

Was this ever done?

Any pics anywhere?

That's what I did and it worked like a charm. Go with Hogwild. If you have a recess, get his regular labels. If you have very little recess, get his "thin" labels.

I usually have Lynbark do my art and have Jason (Hogwild) print.
