Baby Powder?

[deltacards]

I've heard for a long time about people putting baby powder on cards to make them sign better, and I've had trouble lately with glossy cards (IP and TTM) looking smudged, smeared or just not holding a sharpie signature at all. What can I do about this? How exactly do you do the baby powder thing?

Hope this dosn't sound dumb, but I've just never done anything about gloss before.

thanks for the help!

Put some powder on the card and rub it around with your finger. Then just wipe it off with a towel. Pretty simple and it works. I use it all the time.

You don't need to use alot of powder either.
