FAQs
Is the paper truly waterproof?
Yes, the paper is designed to repel water. You can write on it in the rain, and spills will not cause the ink to run or the paper to disintegrate like standard paper.
What kind of pen should I use?
Ballpoint pens and pencils work very well. Gel pens and rollerball pens are also compatible, but may require a slightly longer drying time to prevent smudging.
How many pages are in the notebook?
The notebook contains 100 pages, which is equivalent to 50 sheets of paper.
Can I erase pencil marks on this paper?
Yes, standard erasers can be used to remove pencil marks, similar to regular paper.
What are the dimensions of the notebook?
The notebook measures 3 inches by 5 inches.
Is the cover waterproof?
The Polydura cover is highly durable and water-resistant, protecting the paper from the elements.
Can I use this notebook for drawing?
Yes, you can use it for sketching with pencils or waterproof pens. However, certain art media may not adhere as expected due to the paper's coating.
Troubleshooting
Ink smudging immediately after writing.
Allow a longer drying time for the ink before touching the page, especially with gel or rollerball pens. Consider using a ballpoint pen or pencil for fastest drying.
Paper seems excessively wet or damaged.
Ensure the notebook is not being exposed to prolonged submersion. Wipe excess water off the cover and pages with a dry cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Writing is difficult to read after heavy exposure.
While waterproof, extreme and prolonged saturation can still impact legibility. For critical information, consider backing up notes digitally when possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
No setup is required for this notebook. Simply open it and begin writing.
Compatibility:
- Pens: While the paper is waterproof, some inks may perform better than others. Ballpoint pens and pencils generally work well. For best results with gel or rollerball pens, allow a few extra seconds for the ink to dry to prevent smudging. Avoid using fountain pen inks not specifically designed for waterproof applications.
- Environment: Designed for use in rain, humidity, sweat, and accidental water exposure.
Care:
- To clean the Polydura cover, wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- While the paper is waterproof, prolonged submersion in water may eventually affect it. Ensure the notebook is stored away from constant saturation when not in use.
- Keep the spiral binding free of debris to ensure smooth page turning.
