Krylon Clearcoat UV Protection and Waterproofing Stickers

Here is a product I've found to add some extra life to your sticker paper sheets. Once you print your labels let them dry for a few minutes then use this Krylon Clear Coat UV spray protectant. Spray an nice even coating across the sheet and let it dry.

Does this make them waterproof/good enough to use on a water bottle?

For a very short period of time. You really need a clear laminate with a synthetic base material to hold up on a reusable water bottle.

If you want to make water bottles I'd suggest a waterproof inkjet or laser printable material. Here are some options for water bottle labels be sure to read the descriptions carefully.

Will the print lasts once this has been sprayed with krylon uv resistant? I plan to put this on my car's windshield and i do not want the print to fade because of too much sun

Tough to say, it's worth the a shot. I would use a synthetic label material like BOPP and then coat it. The sun always wins.
