Has anyone used waterproof paper for printing maps from MM?
Does it work with standard inkjet printers and is it really waterproof?
Cheers.
I use zecom but it is only good for lasers. It's 100% waterproof and very tough. I use it scuba diving and it doesn't get wetter than that. Can't see how inkjet could be made properly waterproof, though. It's quite expensive so I tend to just use regular paper for MTBing and stick in an A4 ziploc bag.
For walking/riding I tend to use very thin laminating pouches. If you use 60 micron they are foldable.
I've used the Toughprint paper, seems to do what it says on the tin (packet?). Waterproof and pretty tear resistant too.
You can print on both sides as well.
Rite in the rain do some which I have used. Both inkjet and laser style work and we didn't believe it so sunk it and was strong and resistant.
Cheers peeps, decided to order some A4 ziplock bags instead, a much cheaper option 🙂
