Blackinton Custom Made Badges $0.00 1. Choose the style: Choose from any Blackinton badge we offer. 2. Choose the finish: NICKEL PLATE: Nickel Plate is a hot nickel solution applied by the electroplating process to the polished base metal of a badge. It is silver in color and has a fair degree of hardness. Nickel Plate will sometimes lose some of its luster with age. RHODIUM PLATE: Rhodium, an element within the platinum metal group, is a precious metal that is applied by the electroplating process over a bright nickel base. Rhodium can be distinguished by its brilliant white finish and is tarnish resistant. It will not discolor or peel from the surface of a badge. RHO-GLO®: A base material which has a solid silver color throughout and requires no surface plating. Highly polished to a brilliant luster, a clear coating is then applied to enhance its durability. GOLD ELECTROPLATE: A deposit of 22K+ fine gold electroplate on base material for a rich, bright appearance. HI-GLO®: A base material which has a golden color throughout and requires no surface plating. Highly polished to a brilliant luster, a clear coating is then applied to enhance its durability. V.H.B. KK®: Heavy gold electroplate (HGE) is the ultimate in 24K+ fine gold plate. This process applies a uniformly thick coating of tarnish proof high karat gold, purer and more durable than gold plate. ROSE GOLD: A darkened gold electroplated base material which is hand rubbed to create the appearance of an antique gold finish. V.H.B. BLACK: A subdued black finish over a base material which is then lacquered to provide a durable finish and reduced reflection. V.H.B. Bronze: A base material, blackened and hand rubbed to provide the appearance of natural oxidation from age. A clear lacquer coating is applied to enhance its finish and durability. TWO-TONE: A combination of gold and silver colors. Badges with applied panels will normally consist of HI-GLO® material for the gold color and RHO-GLO® material for the silver color. Badges of one-piece construction will consist of HI-GLO® panels and rhodium background or RHO-GLO® panels and gold plate background. 3.
