Painting over the surface with clear nail polish might help slow down the wear

I was just going to say that. LOL.

This also works to protect your skin if you are allergic to nickel and would like to wear costume jewelry.

I use coated-wire keychains to attach the pathtags to my letterboxing pack. AND, place each pathtag in its own clear plastic coin capsule to protect it. When the capsules become overly scratched it's simple to just replace that and the tag will sustain in perpetuity.

and where do you get these plastic coin capsules? Maybe you could stock a few of them for us?

I was thinking of coating my pathtags with a couple of coats of clear nail polish. Anyone tried that? Pathtags is sort of a new thing for most of us.

I think they also sell something similar at Hobby Lobby.
