Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the best size photo, .jpg, or logo to send for my personalized design?
You have to remember these designs are being produced in a 1" diameter circle, try to stay away from lots of words or intricate designs that may be distorted after being re-made to fit the caps.
- How are the caps sealed?
The caps are designed and labeled, then we use a special sealant to coat the top of the caps. Then your caps are spray coated a second time with a different crown acrylic to help aid in the sterilizing process many brewers use.
*Note: Crafty Caps LLC bottle caps are laminated caps, not direct printed.
- Will the designs be harmed if I boil my caps?
YES! Due to the manufacturing process, these caps CAN NOT be boiled! We have found that the best way to sterilize our designed caps is to use a sanitizing solution instead of the boiling process. Caps should be sterilized before use, typically by soaking in a light sterilizing solution such as Iodophor or I-O Safe, Iodine based solutions. One Step and B-Brite are NOT suggested due to the fact that they are hydrogen peroxide based and can not only leave a reside on the caps, but also degrade the sealant. Crafty Caps LLC is not responsible for designed caps that have damage because they have been boiled.
