Alicia Christofi-Walshe | Aug 27 2019, 10:18am | Hi all, Any tips on how to keep grid refs from getting smudged off map? I have laminated map and for nav 1 I plotted refs on it with permanent marker. After about 30mins nearly all points were smeared off...sweaty fingers:0 I had to stop and re-plot. Thought maybe some one had a tip?? Thanks, Alicia |
Maike Jürgens | Aug 27 2019, 10:32am | some people put the map in an extra plastic bag, i tried not to touch it (had a rubber band to keep it folded so i didn't have to grab it as hard. i believe the type/brand of marker makes a difference too. maybe try Mick Hanney's earlier advice: use a permanent marker, draw over it with non-permanent after the event and it will (should) just rub off. |
