Ive noticed glossy normally lasts a lot longer! One of my newer stickers on my water bottle is matte and the print is already coming off.

Oooo I def noticed! It's not very helpful but I do like both haha. Maybe for these stickers I prefer the glossy.

I like both as long as they’re both waterproof. I think you should do whichever you’re feeling fits each design (if possible)! Glossy vs matte finish never influences my decisions when buying stickers irl at conventions so I would be happy receiving either.

if they're equally waterproof, I prefer matte almost always (holographic I'm split in matte or shiny! they're both cool effects!)

I prefer the look of matte, but I also don't typically put mine anywhere that water is a concern. If they do indeed not hold up as well I think gloss is also fine and would be a good reason to stick with it.

For extra clarification: the matte stickers should be equally waterproof compared to the glossy! According to the manufacturer, the matte laminate and glossy laminate are supposed to be the same, they just have different finishes on outside. However, we haven’t had the matte as long, so we’ll have to see how it holds up with long term testing. I suppose it’s possible that the smooth texture of the glossy helps the sticker to dry off faster than the matte, and perhaps the matte holding on to moisture longer could cause more damage to the sticker over time?

I typically prefer which ever is more waterproof/uv proof🩷 However both textures seem nice to me!💘

I enjoy the look of the matte stickers more but yeah the glossy texture feels better for holding up to time/elements

I love both! I think my only concern would be if the matte can hold up to water? I know some of us like to decorate our water bottles and wouldn’t want our slippery friends to actually slip away!!
