Title: Security hologram stickers?
Post by: Bob Arctor on September 20, 2011, 11:02 am
I am in need of a custom design (exact, or close copy of a sticker I would provide) security hologram stickers. Found some Chinese websites who do custom design stickers, but they only offer wholesale, and I need only like ~20 of those. I could pay like ~20-30$ per sticker. Maybe someone could help me out with this?

There is no difference do you need 5 or 5000 of holograms. Master plate must be made for design and that is really expensive. That master is then used to print(embossed) holograms in infinite amounts.

I see. I had the vague suspicion that some expensive master plate is involved in making those, but wasn't sure. I guess my idea is simply too expensive for the little amount of stickers I need. Thanks for info.

Make your own using a photoEZ stencil and holopaint?? it kind of looks like it works  8)

I would love to be able to do fake ID's but being the perfectionist I am..I think I would only disappoint myself.

I checked out those chinese mobs doing holograms. Some were only charging around .05c per sticker for 5000 order.
Has anyone had any experience with holo's from asia?
