Fall Potted Bulb Labelling Project--machines

The labeling method I have been using for years is to access my database to
print the desired information on clear Avery address labels which I then
burnish down to the zinc plates on metal legs sold by Eon Industries. The company
has advertised in The Daffodil Journal for several years.
If facing east, the labels do fade after a few years. But they rarely
disappear. In recent days I have attempted to recycle some and remove the old
labels, but even acetone will only remove the upper layer, although this works
because that's where the laser toner printing is so I now have a relatively new
plate. The legs do tend to rust and break after some years, so not 100% of
them can be recycled.
