3D Metallic Pins FAQ
Can I really preview a metallic pin in 3D?
Yes. The CBOs 3D Editor renders metallic pin finish on the cap shape so the decision is made on a real preview, not a flat illustration.
Which caps support metallic pins?
Snapbacks, 5-panels, dad hats, fitted caps and most cut-and-sew styles in the CBOs 3D Editor support metallic pin placement.
Do metallic pins move into manufacturing?
Yes. When a pin design is approved in 3D it becomes part of the sampling brief and the private label cap production handoff.
