Customized badges with hard or soft enamel color fill
Customized badges with hard or soft enamel color fills have a clean and refined look. When we create badges with durable hard enamel the color fill is flush with the metal. These badges are high quality with a solid brass base plated with genuine gold, silver, or copper.
Soft enamel
The color enamel is added to the color areas and then kiln-fired to cure the enamel. The color rests below the raised metal.
Hard enamel
The process is similar but enamel is refilled in layers until the enamel and metal are level enough they can polish into a smooth and flush surface.
