What's in your 8 oz. 24k Genuine Gold Gilding Kit? 1) A Single book containing 25 Sheets of 24k Transfer Type Gold Leaf: Transfer (Patent) Gold Leaf:
The individual gold leaves are pressed onto a tissue paper. One uses patent gold, also called tempest gold, when gilding outdoors. The tissue paper is larger than the gold leaf, thus it may be more easily handled. It is also possible to cut the patent leaves into desired shapes/forms with scissors. The leaves are placed onto the prepared surface and carefully rubbed with cotton wool. The tissue paper may then be removed as the gold leaf will adhere to the surface/object. For exterior gilding, we recommend 23.75K up to 24K gold leaf. 2) One 8 fl. Oz. of L.A. GOLD LEAF Quick-Dry Size (adhesive) | A clear Oil Base gilder’s adhesive (size) for fast leaf work. It affords excellent durability, flexibility and open time for interior and exterior gilding applications. The L.A. Gold Leaf Quick Dry Size gilding size will achieve tack in approximately 1½ hours and the tack will remain for approximately the same period of time. Total hard dry occurs in about 36 hours. It should be noted that tack and dry times are subjective to the gilder’s technique, thickness of the film and are approximate depending on the ambient temperature and humidity when applied. | |
3) One 8 fl. Oz. of L.A. GOLD LEAF Yellow Primer:
| L.A. Gold Leaf Yellow Primer for gilding and graphic arts are finely ground pigmented products that eliminate the requirement for separate applications of a sealer, gesso or bole. They produce a smooth surface requiring no or very light sanding. This is not for use as an architectural coating. The L.A. Gold Leaf Primer will seal the surface providing excellent adhesion for gilding and permit a high burnish, with a minimum of rubbing, when built up with multiple coats. The primer is manufactured utilizing premier resins exhibiting excellent adhesion and moisture resistance. The pigments utilized are recommended for gilding applications due to their lasting performance and color retention. The L.A. Gold Leaf Primer is excellent for use on exterior items such as weather vanes and caducei made of copper, bronze, steel or iron. |
