My issue with the thermal label makers is that they eventually will fade especially when heat is applied near them and then they turn black and you need to relabel.  Do those brady labels survive that?

Yeah, Ray. They're not strictly thermal, they have a roll of labels and a roll of carbon paper-like vinyl. I think a laser burn the carbon onto the label. 

I have everything in my engine compartment labeled, including my spark plug wires, and they're as fresh as the day I put them on. 

They aren't so immune to solvents, though. I've tried to label my Wurth Brake-Kleen and Kerosene QuickShots and if anything gets on the lettering, it dissolves it. 

(But the printing on the wire labels is protected. The sprayer labels aren't. I just realized I should cover the labels with some clear packing tape and they'd be indestructible)

 

Heres a shot that shows my spark plug labels. Took last year during my shroud mods. They were one year old at that point. (They still look the same one year hence).
