What do you do to stop the ink from running when the sticker gets rained on? My "Flush the Johns" sticker ran some when I got caught in a rain shower. I need to make some more of them.

I printed up six for my 3-day drive to Dallas from Denver (Discussed on
This thread) this weekend. I only lost three and the remaining survivors didn't have running ink problems at all. Just make sure they dry completely before handling them.
Perhaps laminating them?

"What do you do to stop the ink from running when the sticker gets rained on?" Have you tried a waterproofing silicone or clear acrylic spray? Not sure how durable they are if exposed to prolonged periods of rain, but might be worth a shot.

This may have already been mentioned, but if not, I purchased a spray can of Clear Acrylic Satin finish from Lowes in the paint department. I sprayed two coats and it has held up very well.
