Both the number and order of steps it takes to make a hard enamel pin are different.

1. Enamel filling

Unlike in soft enamel pins, each cavity of a hard enamel pin is overfilled with enamel. Also, note that the enamel filling happens before electroplating in this process.

2. Baking

Hard enamel pins are baked after each color of enamel is added. So if a pin has five unique colors, it will be baked five times.

3. Polishing

The enamel that’s been overfilled and baked gets polished down, so it’s level with the plating. You can still see the metal plating; it’s just smooth so there are no raised edges.

4. Electroplating

The magic of electroplating still allows you to add a thin veneer of metal over the exposed iron or zinc edges of a hard enamel pin. But you’re restricted to only shiny metals like gold or silver.

If you look closely at this funky pin we made, you’ll see the exposed, shiny gold plating. But notice it doesn’t stick out above any of the blue or colored enamel sections.

What’s the difference between hard and soft enamel?

Soft enamel pins have raised metal edges that give them texture, are less expensive, and offer more design flexibility.

Hard enamel pins are smooth and shiny, more durable, and take longer to make.

Creating your first custom enamel pin is fun. But before you get into color choice, artwork, or backer design, you have an important decision to make: soft enamel or hard enamel.
