WHAT IF I DON'T WANT TO PRINT ON THEM?...would they be fine (and would they look "nice") for regular day-to-day burning to be written on with permanent marker?

Yes, the surface is a lot like paper. They look really nice with the white background and they do accept regular permanent ink.

I use these for anything I want to save for further use. I have burned some but not many. I save emails and sometimes pictures, I save my Family trees information.etc.Yes you can write on them with Permanent Marker.

Assume it would work with a marker but why would you want to???? . They cost more than the standard CD/DVD'S. I have use the printable CD's to print on for years and they work fine for me. You can use markers on most any CD/DVD's.

Yes, you can use a marker on them. They give you a nice white surface to write on. I don't do it but have friends that do. The ones that you do not print on just might be a little cheaper though. Hope I helped.

Very much so. The disks have much more area that can be used for writing, since they are not imprinted with brand logos and other distracting images.
1034468
yes, you can write on them. they are awesome. I an about to order some more.

I have never had an issue with using a permanent marker on an inkjet printable surface. If anything, the inkjet printable finish should make markers work better.

I use a permanent marker on DVD's and CD's quite frequently. No problem at all.

Yes, they'd be perfect for writing on with a Sharpie. They'd also work for writing on with a wet-erase or dry erase marker if you wanted to be able to re-use them.

These are very SMALL quantities to use on walls, so I assume you're doing small designs? I don't see why they wouldn't be just fine--they are acrylic and would behave as they do on paper or any other object being decorated. I do not have a value for how long they would last, but keeping designs out of direct sunlight should help--and away from tiny hands too!.............m

You could use pen or sharpie. They are small though, so you will need a fine point.

They are coated on the outside so I'd suggest if you want colored ones search for ones already the color you want. But you can write on these with a Sharpie.

YES! We had a lot of people write on them. Sharpies worked the best, but you could probably use any kind of pen.

They are not permanent markers. They did smudge for me on a slick calendar that I was writing on. It had to dry for a while before I could write anything else on the calendar. I hope that helps! Happy New Year!

Hello, you can always color them but I am not sure if it will look nice since as soon it gets a little bit melted it can be messy with the new color. However good luck and let us know how it worked!

I don't see why not, they feel just like regular paper and I am sure with Sharpies at least there would be no issue with drawing on them.

I wrote on some of mine with permanent markers.......not sure about wet erase markers

I did once accidentally run them through my inkjet, and the ink smeared badly. Only use them in a laser.However, you can mark on them with a Sharpie if you are just looking for a weatherproof label and don't have a laser.

I was burning a design into the wood and painting it, it's got this thin clear coat to it. I'm sure sharpie would stick but probably rub off over time, I'd sand it and when the weddings over put a clear coat over the signatures that way it's more permanent. Neat idea for a guest book and congratulations

Yes. They look just like any other 'ink' cartridge you would use only they have edible food coloring in them. BUT, my copier does not work and never did. AND, I could not get a response from the dealer.

I would think these would work well as they are permanent but I would make sure it was either an 05 (NOT 005) or and 03. For visibility I would do an 05... for numbers I would do an 03. Depends on how many people will sign/draw and how large the canvas. Well I looked at the last comment which contradicts mine... so the best idea is to buy "a" pen and try it to see if it fits your needs.

I use them for postcards. I guess you could use them for photos. I don't see any harm.

I think it would only work well writing on paper. It's not permanent the way a Sharpie is.

As far as I can tell they are not writable, there is lines for you to write with a permanent marker. They used to sell a product that printed on any disk, I believe it was permanent label maker that you slid the disk in. I still have one somewhere.
