Gilding powders can be used on nearly every surface from metal to wood to painted to stained! It can also handle just about any sealant from wax to water base polycrylic to an oil base poly. However, for best results, you may want to use it last for optimum sparkle if you project permits.
Cautions: While these powders are 100% all natural, they are still a powder and powders can go airborne. DO NOT SHAKE your powders. If they get a little shook up...let them sit for a few minutes before opening them. Powders have an endless shelf life unless exposed to moisture. So please keep them dry!
We do recommend that you have dedicated brushes for your powders. Small, round stiff bristle brushes work the best. You can get these fairly cheap at your local craft store.
Clean Up: Wash hands with warm water and soap to remove any reside powders. To remove from surfaces, vinegar and water is the best method and if you want to remove it from a project piece the area will need to be sanded as it will make a permanent bond with the paint/materials.
