Wondering what you guys use for service stickers, I've used little sticker machines which I find tedious, and static cling which stay on some of the time. I always write on the filters the due at hours with a sharpie but that isn't good enough for some operators. Any recommended sticker companies? I'd like to have some custom easy to remove stickers made up. But I'm still going to write on the filters!:D

I just write on the filters since I'm the one who pays attention to the hours. In our trucks I just use masking tape and a sharpie

Google "oil change stickers" there's a bunch of companies out there. Somebody's bound to have one that will work for you. Some of the company's will custom make them for you

i use a std. brother P touch lable maker and put them under hood or some where out of direct sunlight and it works fantasic for me. i also put one on the upper left hand corner of the windshield when the last major service was done.

+1 on the P-touch. I label my filter racks in the shop with by Equipment and part numbers.

Makes it easy to order when they're getting low.

I have a label maker and make a label each for next oil and filter for the truck and hydraulic filter for the crane and put them on the instrument cluster, stating the hours for the next service. Along with clearance hight and plate no.

We just use stickers that we sharpie in the info on. They work pretty good. Never fall off and if its not -20 out they generally peel off pretty easy.

I've compiled a list or category of equipment service stickers. Please let me know if you have any suggestions to create or customize stickers that you can use.
