How to use:

• Mix the 24K gold painting powder with the included solution until a consistency similar to thin acrylic paint has been achieved.
• Paint onto a freshly fired piece of silver metal clay. If applying to sterling silver, it will need to be depletion gilded first.
• If applying to a fine silver piece that is already polished, reheat the piece using a torch for 1 - 2 minutes or fire in a kiln at 899°C for 10 minutes
• It is recommended that you apply two coats for the best results.
• Allow the paint to completely dry before firing. The dried paint is lighter in color than the wet paint, which is a helpful indicator of when it is dry. 
• Fire with a torch for 1 – 2 minutes, or in a kiln at 899°C for 10 minutes.
• Once the piece has cooled, burnish the applied gold with a burnisher to bring out the gold shine.
• Any remaining painting powder that has been mixed with the solution can be left to dry out, scraped back into the jar and saved for future use.

Sold as a 1gm jar.
