• Laminated (soft-matte front / gloss back, edge-sealed) — Front is low-glare and writeable; gloss back adds rigidity. Wipes clean with a soft cloth.

We use a soft-matte writeable face with a gloss reverse so you can annotate fixes, bearings, and ETAs directly on the chart, then clean down between passages.
