Instacoll Gilding System
Starting at: £6.50
Kölner Instacoll is a two-part system, consisting of a base coat and activator, that can be used on nearly all suitably prepared substrates to create weather-resistant, high gloss interior and exterior gilded surfaces. The Instacoll Tool is a double-ended tool with shaped tips made of elastic rubber, designed for pressing gold and silver transfer leaf into indentations when gilding uneven surfaces. The Instacoll Chiffonnette is an extra soft, lint-free cloth, used for polishing and burnishing surfaces gilded with Instacoll. *PLEASE NOTE - COLOURS OF THESE PRODUCTS MAY VARY SLIGHTLY FROM PRODUCTS PICTURED* Learn More -

Liquid Leaf Metallic Paint
Starting at: £11.90
A remarkable gilding paint that contains its own red primer and film of lustrous gold, premixed into a single liquid. It flows easily onto the surface with no brush marks, forming a beautiful, lustrous finish. It is so controllable that it can be used with a striping brush or ruling pen for fine lines and scrolls. Liquid Leaf can be used on wood, metal, glass, ceramics, papier-mache and cardboard. It can also be used as an ink. One colour of Liquid Leaf can be used over another once dry. For air brushing all colours can be thinned with the Brush Bath. This easy-to-control one-step paint gives a brilliant sheen without brassiness, a permanent finish more closely resembling traditional leafing. A 30ml bottle will cover approximately 2sq/m.
