Can you confirm if the Writing Slate is suitable for use in cold water temperatures? I don’t want it to crack or break easily.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern about using the Aropec Writing Slate in cold water temperatures. We appreciate your diligence in ensuring the product meets your needs. Our Writing Slate is constructed from high-density ABS plastic, which is known for its resistance to impact, pressure, and saltwater corrosion.
