Electroplating gold onto raw metal badges requires multi-stage ultrasonic cleaning, acid etching, nickel barrier undercoating (to prevent zinc/copper migration), and gold ion bath submersion (Au metal deposit thickness ranging from 0.03 to 0.1 microns).
Our gold plate color finishes resist oxidation, salt spray corrosion (tested up to 48 hours ASTM B117 standards), and daily abrasion, ensuring long-lasting luster for luxury lapel badges.
Achieving absolute visual consistency across custom enamel pin batches demands precise Pantone Solid Coated (PMS) color pigment mixing. Automated liquid enamel dispensers apply precise micro-gram liquid quantities into die-struck recessed cells.
For complex artwork requiring smooth tonal shifts, high-resolution UV digital flatbed printing is applied directly over hard gold enamel surfaces with protective clear coats.
