Ok, stick with me here... I may be shouted down or told it is stupid... that's fine as i'd rather that than waste my time.
I predominantly use swienty polys, now I know these are designed to use without crown board but I got sick of the roof being stuck down with prop and wax. As a result I use crown boards. Now previously i have kept a record sheet for the hive on a piece of laminated paper under the roof on top of the crown board but this year got fed up with them blowing off the crown board or slipping below the stand so I started thinking about how I could use the underside of the roof as the record sheet. Now obviously I can't write direct on to the poly, and this is where you guys come in.... is there some kind of product you can think of that can be applied to the poly to form a smooth writable (with drywipe pen) surface that can then be wiped away? This may seem like a silly idea to some but i'm certain if it works it would save some effing and jeffing this coming season. Any ideas?
