Actually, I want to make a private lego set for my wife.
So, I made my own lego box and instruction.
And also I bought some bricks via bricklink!

However, suddenly, I wanted to make Lego stickers.
So, I used Adobe illustrator to design my own sticker
And. I found some shop which can print sticker.

They gave me a chance to choose the sticker paper material.
The paper material was as follows.

#1.matte PVC
#2.gloss PVC
#3.transparent PET
#4.craft paper.

In my opinion, the right choice seems to be #1.
And it seems to have to be coated as a post-process.

Can you give me an advice?

Thank you for reading despite my poor English skills.

#2.gloss PVC
#3.transparent PET
are the closest to the 2 types of stickers Lego commonly prints(White and transparent).
The third they do is a mirrored foil.

Some of the stickers are printed on a mirror plastic so before you buy just check
which one you want.
