How to Take Care of Your Fire/Police Badges
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]After selecting the design of your custom police badge you’ll be instructed on how to keep it clean and to maintain the finish to keep it looking professional and to maintain the look and luster that it has been given. Cleaning procedures are simple enough as it only requires warm water, a clean cloth, and non-abrasive soap to keep most badges clean and polished. Take care to not use any type of hard-bristled brush when cleaning your badge, since stiff bristles could wear down the finish and damage the coloring and acrylic.
There is a wide assortment of badges online to choose from, so it’s important to choose carefully and find the one badge that will suit your needs. Custom badges tend to take longer to create and are a bit more expensive, so take into account your budget and when you’ll need it as well.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
