Description: 1RST CALVARY PATCH TAN ON INFRARED MAGIC BLACK 4" X 5 1/4" WITH VELCRO® BRAND FASTENER REJECT #254 THIS PATCH IS should not be used in the field and is considered a reject. THESE PATCHES WILL HAVE MAY HAVE LARGE DIRT PARTICLES, STREAKS IN THE COLORS, DEFECTS IN THE PRINTED IMAGE, OR A COMBINATION OF THESE ISSUES. PATCHES WILL BE IDENTIFIABLE, FUNCTIONAL AND REFLECTIVE BUT NOT IN PERFECT CONDITION. BECAUSE OF THE AGE OF THESE PATCHES THE PROTECTIVE POLYURETHANE TOPCOAT HAS BECOME BRITTLE AND WILL CRACK IF IT IS FOLDED OR BENT. THIS PATCH ALSO HAS SEAMS IN THE VELCRO. THE MAIN BLEMISH PROBLEMS ON THIS PATCH ARE THE PRINT STREAKS AND THAT THE TAN WAS PRINTED WITH A TRANSPARENT LOOK ON HALF OF THESE.Magic Black areas will reflect brightly when viewed with night vision. Patches labeled as Reflective (raw solas) are non covert and will reflect under any condition. We do not recommend these patches for use in the field, they are only for collecting. Please purchase SolasX patches for use in the field. Many of these patches are uncommon patches, printed for individual units or branches of the military. Many patches have only a limited quantity available for purchase. Most of the REJECT patches are older patches. The patches labeled as “Old Tan” and “Gloss Finish” were printed before 2007. Patches that have a Matt finish were printed after 2007 that was before we switched over to the SolasX printing process. These patches must not be bent or the topcoat will crack. These are the same type of patches used by the US Military. The patches were manufactured in our factory here in the USA. Every step of the process is done here at Anytime Sign, artwork, screen printing, and die cutting. We use the best quality materials and printing techniques: 3M® Brand Solas is approved by the U.S. Coast Guard as a retro reflective material used to enhance visibility of life saving equipment in nighttime, or low light conditions. 3M® brand Solas reflects brightly when viewed with night vision equipment, providing crystal-clear friend or foe identification. The VELCRO® BRAND FASTENER we use has the highest quality acrylic-based adhesive glue and is able to withstand extremely hot climates. HOOK SIDE ON BACK OF PATCH ONLY, WE DO NOT PROVIDE THE LOOP SIDE. VELCRO® BRAND FASTENER 330 PSA 0172. Solvent Based Inks. All the inks we use on our patches are Solvent Based. Solvent based inks are better than digitally printed or UV inks because they adhere better and have a thicker ink deposit. Solvent based inks will not fade, even if they are left outdoors for years. Magic Black Infrared Ink. Magic Black is made and developed by Anytime Sign. We regulate the quality and the thickness for ultimate opacity in the visible spectrum. In the infrared spectrum, Magic Black becomes transparent allowing for the 3M® Brand solas to reflect light back to the Night Vision equipment, providing crystal- clear friend or foe identification.
