4. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: To clean the badge, gently wipe the front surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the print or tinplate.
- Storage: When not in use, store badges in a dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential fading over extended periods. Keeping them in their original sealed OPP bag or a shockproof box can protect them from scratches and damage.
- Avoid Bending: While the badges are bend-resistant, excessive force can deform them. Handle with care.
- Water Exposure: The badges are waterproof, but prolonged submersion or exposure to harsh conditions should be avoided to maintain their longevity.
5. Troubleshooting
- Badge Not Attaching Securely:
- Ensure the butterfly clasp is fully pressed onto the pin.
- Check if the fabric is too thick for the pin to pass through completely.
- Inspect the pin and clasp for any damage or deformation.
- Badge Appears Dirty or Dull:
- Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a very mild soap solution can be used, followed by drying thoroughly.
- Pin is Bent or Damaged:
- If the pin is slightly bent, it may be carefully straightened. However, if severely damaged, the badge may not be repairable.
