KISS Band Retro Glitter Enamel Pin | Classic Rock Collectible Lapel Pin
A custom retro glitter enamel lapel pin featuring the classic KISS band lineup with signature face paint, glitter accents and the iconic KISS logo, made to your artwork for collectors, fan merchandise sellers, or promotional campaigns. The design shown was produced with soft enamel and glitter fill, and the same process applies to any band, era or theme you provide. You approve a digital proof before production begins, so the final pin matches your vision exactly.
What You Get and Who Orders It
Key Benefits
- The band logo and face paint are struck into the metal rather than printed, so they do not peel or fade over time
- Glitter is applied by hand and sealed under a clear coat to prevent shedding and maintain sparkle
- Soft enamel fills the recessed areas and leaves the metal edges proud for a tactile, durable finish
- One digital proof covers all pins in a batch, so multiple designs or colour variants stay consistent
- Made to order in our own factory, so revisions are handled directly between you and the production team

Problems It Solves
- Stock pins from third-party sellers carry generic designs and cannot reflect your specific theme or artwork
- Glitter applied with adhesive peels off quickly and looks cheap after repeated handling
- Printed logos on pins fade or crack under pressure or exposure to light
- Multiple suppliers produce inconsistent colour and finish across reorders
- Lack of a proof step leads to mismatched designs, incorrect plating or wrong attachment types

Use Guide

- Keep critical elements like the logo and eyes above 2 millimetres in height to avoid filling during enamel application
- Specify glitter placement in your artwork to ensure it appears in the right areas
- Confirm pin back type and finish (polished or antique) before proofing
