    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
  8. Kölner Permacoll, Red

    Permacoll

    Starting at: £8.65

    Permacoll size dries within 15 to 30 minutes, and metal leaf can be applied hours or even days later. This product is designed to achieve decorative metallic finishes on surfaces that are not exposed to weather or excessive wear. It has more adhesive strength than Instacoll and is therefore particularly well suited for gilding with imitation metal leaf. The final surface is not burnishable. *PLEASE NOTE - COLOURS OF THESE PRODUCTS MAY VARY SLIGHTLY FROM PRODUCTS PICTURED* Learn More

  10. Roberson Gum Ammoniac

    Roberson Gum Ammoniac

    Starting at: £13.50

    Natural gum size made to a traditional recipe. Gum Ammoniac is useful for gilding in small areas and, more generally, in detailed gilding. Two applications are needed if gilding on absorbent paper. Raised areas can be developed by using several layers and allowing each layer to dry first. Gum Ammoniac can be reactivated by breathing on the gum surface. Gum Ammoniac comes to us from Asia and is increasingly hard to source. Learn More
