Photo Etching

Photo Etch lapel pins allow for greater detail than die-struck soft enamel or die-cast pins. With this process your design is chemically etched into the base metal and then the color is filled in by hand. Photo etch lapel pins are covered with a thin epoxy to protect the colors. Photo etch pins are often a more economical lapel pin because of the thinner metal and lower die charge.
