Imbedded inlays are PLACED onto the chip when the material is hot and pliable- once the chip cools the bond between the inlay and chip is as permanent as it gets.
Thats why sometimes you'll see chips with nonsymmetrical inlays- something moved- the chip cooled- and what ya got is what ya got.
Short of that- we have a UV curable vinyl inlay as we call it- probably the wrong choice of words- perhaps a BETTER sticker would be correct- but we can cure the image to our blank chip-its also quite permanent, requiring a knife and patience to remove the image- and in quite a few pieces and you will usually destroy the chip.
We also have a special vinyl we had manufactured which uses a permanent heat activated adhesive. If you dont use heat it will become permanent usually in 30 days- but heating everything speeds this up quite a bit.
Most quality images should include some form of lamination, and preferably polycarbonate lamination. It's impervous to everything including the deliberate fingernail gauge.
A quality image for a chip should also fit EXACTLY- which rules out most paper labels which are only available in a few common sizes.
But if the images youre looking at for the .14c price include the above- its about par for what these go for--
Were not making these at present except for our resellers.
You may want to look up Hogwild on CT- he puts out a quality product I am told.
But at least you have an understanding of the different options short of an actual imbedded inlay
