bottle labels for mounted rack

[Blue17CamaroZL1]

I posted this picture up on the Adams Polishes facebook page back on 12/27.

 

 

It's a can/bottle holder I found online and it's the perfect size for Adam's 16 oz bottles.  However, the rack covers up the front of the label showing which bottle is which.

 

 

I just ordered 3 more of these racks for my garage.

 

What I was looking to do, was to get labels so I can stick them to the front of the rack to go with the bottles.  I know pretty much which bottle is which due to the color and how I'm going to have them racked (rack 1 polishes, rack 2 washing (waterless, shampoo, detail spray), rack 3 wheels, rack 4 interior) but I still think it would be cool to have labels on the front of the racks to label where each bottle goes.

 

Any suggestions?

I can't help with labels, but I'm curious as to where you purchased these racks!

Get a label maker like a Brother P-Touch that uses the TZ tapes, which are laminated and hold up well.  I used 18mm Black-on-Clear tape to label my Kwazars.

Here. Cheaper to ship from eBay than the company itself.

My sister got me the first one directly from the company but it cost $21 for shipping. They dont even tell you shipping cost until its shipped. I bought from eBay and just had 3 shipped for $17 total.

$50 for something that only holds 5 bottles?!?!

 

You could make something from the hardware store for less than that.

[Feets31]

put them in upside down

 

You will have to read them upside down which shouldnt be a problem as you will already know what they are.  

 

Or you can write on the wood.

Indeed I could.

Magic marker.

i was thinking excel/word, printer and some packing tape

The 'visual reference' part of me would say print out large block text for each product name and color code it to the respective product. The regular labels all look the same from a distance, the product color is what gives you that visual distinction for quick glances.

[BluedogGMC]

You can get bumper sticker stock for your home printer then just print out a 4" picture of the bottle from the Adams site then stick on the holder.

Also if you want to make your own you can just drill holes in deck post sleeves like this and mout it to the wall.

I was really hoping to get some Adams labels, hint hint. Then I can cut them to size on the front part.

[Kingsford]

Peal and cut them off the bottles. They come off pretty easily with a heat gun.

[Rich]

Why can't  you just find a label pic on Google, save it, then print off as many as you need in the right sizes and put them on with glue, clear tape, or place them between two sheets of self laminate and then cut them out and apply.  Really not that hard.

[Kingsford]

I made my own custom labels, with the Staples Link I posted above, similar to the way Rich pointed out.

[Blue17CamaroZL1]

So I did what Rich said, copied the bottle labels from the website and printed them onto the rack:

That looks good.

This thread gave me some ideas for some bottle storage in the garage.

 

I like the labeling idea as well. I think I have a bit of a project once the GTI is back on the ground.

I like that idea. I'm going to try that once the weather warms up some.

Here's the perfect solution........get a piece of foam, cut it to fit, and put it in the bottom of the rack. Then put your bottles in. It will lift your bottles up high enough that you can read the labels and you'll be able to interchange your bottles without having to change labels every time.

If I didn't have 3 more racks coming by the end of this week, that would be perfect.

So you can't do it with all of them?  Doesn't have to be rubber or foam.  Anything that will add an inch of height under the bottles will work.  But I'm guessing that you bought more racks so  you'll have dedicated spots for each product.  I still wouldn't use permanent labels though.  Products change all the time, and then you run the risk of messing up the finish changing labels.  Just something to think about.

That's why they are just scotch taped on.

Looks real good!
