write-in label

This label may be written on with a grease-marker, or dry-erase pen and later wiped clean. Masking tape may also be placed on this surface, if desired. If you write on it with a "Sharpie", you may have trouble getting the writing off. If this is the case, your best bet is to wipe the label off with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
