| We make names panels to be sewn on to the jackets and pants and no one complains and the advantage of it they can be remove to be sewn on a new one uniform. Ours as been on now for threes years with very litte fading.

| How would you sew a patch on (I accidentally managed to get my name printed on somebody elses lame because they left it in my bag)? Do you need conductive thread or just leave an overlap?

| I dont know if its legal or not, but to patch a lame, I've used conductive glue.

| Just do a overlap with the panel were the conductive mat is touching. What type of glue is conductive.

| I actually wish I had remembered the name of it. It was a metal glue, and we had a small tube of it in our basement. We tested the resistance of it, and it was a little over under 1 ohm. If I see it again I'll let you know. I think it was made for electronics work.

Do you need conductive thread or just leave an overlap? | It is amazing how much thread you can put on a Lame and it will still pass the armorer's test. If you get a small hole, just sew it through the lining in a star pattern and it will be fine.
If the hole is larger, I like to slide a small patch of Lame material through the hole, then sew it down through the lining. It is better than a patch on top because it doesn't catch the blade.
