THE SCIENCE
What Makes DC Armour Different?

Flash & Vermeil
Gold is applied directly onto silver. Gold is naturally soft. Over time, friction gradually reduces the gold layer.
✦
DC Armour
An engineered protective layer is first applied to strengthen and shield the surface. Then DC Armour plating techniques is finished on top for brilliance.
✓ The Result
◉ Greater scratch resistance
✦ Longer-lasting shine
◉ Better resistance to fading
