Thanks for your inquiry. Oils can be tough on printed labels, and different types of oil may affect the printed surfaces in various ways. You'll need to use one of our weatherproof materials, and if you have access to a laser printer I'd recommend choosing one of the weatherproof laser options. You can view a list of our weatherproof materials at the link below:

Your best bet to ensure durability against a wide range of oils would be to implement some kind of laminate over the printed labels. You can apply a laminate as a clear overcoat spray, or by placing a clear glossy label over the surface of your printed labels. More information about improving the durability of your printed labels can be found at the following link:

With these types of applications we definitely recommend trying samples before making a purchase. This will allow you to determine which material works best, and whether you'll need to apply a laminate for your specific application. You can request some free sample sheets by filing out the form below:

I hope this helps. If you need any additional information please just let us know.
