    What is the best marker to use on chrome cards?

    I really like the look of autographed chrome cards, but I cannot figure out what type of marker to use that will stick to the chrome cards. I have tried sharpies, but the ink almost disappears after the card is signed. Does anyone know of a good marker to have chrome cards signed with? Any help will be appreciated as baseball season is coming up and I am in close proximity to the AAA affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds (Louisville Bats).

    thats the thing about the chrome cards, i dont know if any pen will really work well but a ball point might be the best since the ink is dryer but you will still have problems w/ smearing. imo chrome cards are not the best choice for IP autos they would work better with sticker autos..

    These Staedtler pens work great on glossy cards.
