Taiwan silver foil for all DIY, beauty salons, glass & ceramic artists. Great for gilding furniture, walls, ceilings and decorative objects. Turn home items into a metallic antique look. Their appeal extends to mixed-media artists, who use them to embellish glassware, ceramics, and pottery. Whether used as a whole sheet or cut into random shapes and sizes, these leaves add a unique touch to book scrubbing, invites, and decorative objects.
- Each leaf measures 8×9 cm.
- It is excellent for interior design, walls, benches, and panels.
- With its versatility, Taiwan silver foil can be applied to all materials, such as wood, metal, gib-board, stone, glass, ceramic, concrete, plastic, fabric, and more, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of artistic and DIY projects. Use any gold leaf size, including Permacoll or Kolner Aqua Gilding.
- When using imitation metal leaf, it is best to use Gilder’s Gloves or Kolner Instacoll Tissue to avoid leaving fingerprints on the metal leafs, as they will show up later after applying the sealer.
- Use the gilder’s mop/duster to buff off the redundant flakes of the surface.
For long-lasting results, use Kolner Leaf Protect to shield the foil from oxidation, ensuring that your artistic and DIY projects maintain their quality over time.
Choosing the right gilding size is crucial for successful application. For special gilding projects, refer to the guide on Choosing The Right Gilding Adhesive.
