Are you using the red label "Industrial Sharpie" already, if not give them a try?
I would also suggest using a slide marking pen since they are resistant to many solvents used in the lab like alcohol and xylene.

Hi everyone, Can someone recommend a good pen to use to label cryo tubes. The VWR pens we have been using are apparently discontinued. I would like something that writes as fine as an ultrafine sharpie, but is less likely to smear and is more long lasting, and solvent tolerant. Thanks Patrick.
