December 1, 2018 at 5:33 pmI purchased two deck for our use in Hawaii. NO problem with heat, but…..after a few months of use, the faces of the cards began to rub off on each other Now some cards require more than casual observation to determine the cards value. The backs are great, but the faces are leaving us.

December 3, 2018 at 3:05 pmHoyle Waterproof is especially helpful in messy or wet environments as long as they are stored away from extreme temperatures.
Plastic cards are highly durable and can take a lot, but does not mix well with heat. Heat can cause warping to the cards and also effect the print on the cards. Even hot sun or warm playing areas are best avoided to get the most out of your cards.
Thanks, The Bicycle Team

Thanks for your message. Hoyle Waterproof is indeed terrific for messy or wet environments as long as they are stored away from extreme temperatures.
Plastic is highly durable and can take a lot, but does not mix well with heat. Heat can cause warping to the cards and effect the print on the cards. Even hot sun or warm playing areas are best avoided to get the most out of your cards.
Plastic decks of cards can certainly break with improper care.
Keep your Waterproof Cards clean. Here are the recommended card-cleaning instructions for KEM and Waterproof Cards:
Always use cold water when washing your KEM or Waterproof cards. Using hot water will cause fading and chipping. (Do not put them in the dish washer or washing machine!)
Use a neutral soap. A neutral soap is one that carries a PH balance of 4. A neutral soap is one that is not alkaline or acidic. Using a neutral soap like Dove will increase the longevity of your playing cards.
Use a non-abrasive cloth to clean your cards. Don’t use a paper towel or other abrasive material.
Clean only a few cards at a time. Don’t go too fast. Be sure each card is cleaned before moving on to the next card.
Rub very lightly on both sides of the card and rinse quickly.
Don’t let soap residue or water lay on the card for an extended period of time.
Use a cloth to dry by hand. Then set out each card individually to air dry.
Do not set cards on top of one another until they are completely dry.
Do not use any artificial heat to dry the cards. Avoid setting in the sun.
Once dried, place KEM or Waterproof cards back in storage case.
Thank You, The Bicycle Team

If you can see the cards through the back including the suit?
Whats the point of any card game then?

August 8, 2021 at 3:05 pmbro there’s a picture of the back and you can’t see what card it is from that view…like that spade isn’t the suit of the card that’s just the design

November 26, 2015 at 5:31 pmThese cards are very interesting. On the one hand, you can see straight through them, but on the other hand, they’re so flexible you can’t use them for cardistry. But for card games, these are fantastic.
