I do a fair number of Anodized Dog Tags and never (to my knowledge) have had any issues with the anodized coating. I had a customer who I did about 10 tags about a year ago call me and told me that the black had worn completely off many of the tags. Not sure what happened and I bought tags from a couple suppliers so no way to tell where I got those from. Of course I offered to make some replacements but the customer is asking me for something different than the aluminum. She says she has some plastic tags. Anyone here used any other material for Dog Tags? I can make Rowmark tags but I can't imagine that they would hold up around the hole where the tag attaches. Any other ideas about making sturdy tags other than rotary engraving on metal? I do have an old Scott rotary that was used for plastic. Is it possible to put a bit on that to engrave metal? I'll have to do some research.

Any comments, ideas welcome.
