Hard Enamel badges

Post by markm »

Looking to get a couple of hard enamel badges made just the 2 with just some writing on them as a joke to my business partner. Anyone know someone who could do them

Maybe the same place Thomas gets the DDK key rings and grille badges done? Sure he will advise shortly?

Well..... Our enamel stuff was done by a company in America but minimum print runs and increased costs make them difficult now.

You could for something similar to the DDK 20th Anniversary Keyring - a gel badge print mounted onto to something like a key ring. You'll have more chance of a reasonable price for a one off with that route,

I've used Pamela David Enamels in the past for one-off badges - I think (like everything else !) prices have escalated though:

If you enjoy a project you can make them by acid etching brass with iron chloride solution, chrome plate and enamel.
