Expert Answers About Custom PVC Patches
Clear answers on artwork preparation, volume discounts, turnaround lead times, and care instructions.
2D molding creates crisp, stepped flat plateaus at varying elevations with 90-degree vertical walls (ideal for text, logos, and geometric emblems). 3D molding uses computerized ball-mill tooling to sculpt rounded, organic, contoured surfaces like spheres, muscles, terrain, or realistic weapons.
Yes! Unlike fabric embroidery that absorbs mud and stains, PVC patches can be rinsed under water, scrubbed with soap, or wiped clean with a damp cloth in seconds.
Yes. Our specialized Shore-A PVC compound remains flexible and crack-resistant from -20°F up to 140°F, making them standard issue for winter tactical units and polar expeditions.
The sewing channel is a thin, recessed groove molded 2mm inside the outer perimeter. It allows a sewing machine needle to pass through without resistance and protects the thread from abrasion.
Yes! We mix liquid PVC pigments to match your exact Pantone Solid Coated PMS color codes with 100% precision.
