• Side tabs let you find the right chapter quickly
• Fully waterproof, dirt-proof, tear-proof, wind-proof, kid-proof.
• Pages are made of specially formulated, heat-treated, PVC plastic - polished, resin-coated polyvinylchloride polymer). Pages feature:
  • Bright white printing surface - all printing is clear and precise
  • Virtual indestructibility - the pages can't rip or tear, and the corners won't bend over
  • Flexibility - pages can bend without breaking

Under normal conditions it will take years of use for these Pocket Guides to "yellow", and even then they will remain clear and perfectly readable!)
