How to "Break In" an ID? ( self )

submitted by Gager122 Warning: 0%

Just got my ID in from IDKing, Looks wonderful rather than the crappy picture (I took an alright one but nothing great), anyway to make the ID look not so ("Off the factory line") what would I do? Like really beat it up where it looks a couple years old so the picture doesn't look so bad?

Pour sand on it and shake it around and scrape it in the sand lightly. if u dont have sand u can throw it on dirt and then do the same and then bend it a few times but dont break it. and then wash it off and ur golden

IF you're unhappy with the picture send my CS a message please. But to answer your question, throw it in a wallet between the other cards and just let it get its wear naturally from sitting on it and moving around with it

Word, and it's my fault on the picture to be clear nothing you guys could do about it. I have another ID from IDGod and it came out better just because it was closer. I reached out to you today and you gave me instructions on how to resolve the issue. Was planning on following them soon. Just wanted to make it look beat up until the New ones came. Also must say the ID looks identical to the real one, Great Job on them Highly recommend everyone orders from IDKing.

It says the date it was issued, just deal with the fact you have a crappy pic and hope no one notices or get a new id. Id’s last a couple of years so it shouldn’t look beat up unless you’ve had it for 5+ years.

Easiest way is to coat it in peanut butter and microwave for ~1 min.

Does this actually work LMAO

Yeah. Known as the peanut butter trick here. Most vendors recommend it. The lipids protect the ID and the particulates in the PB very lightly scratch the surface from rapid movement due to the microwaves hitting it. By far the best and easiest method

take it to the shower area of your local YMCA

or you could put it in your wallet next to some high traffic cards like credit debit cards: IDs and cards get dirty by being inserted into dirty pos terminals or being handled by dirty hands, so best bet is to leave it next to stuff that does that on the daily
