      Hey Blake
      Often in reverse glass they would use two different golds to make the effect. Like lemon gold for the highlight and 23k for the shadow. Mostly because you are actually seeing the back side of the gold through the glass and the velvet marks the other side.
      That being said, in creativity anything is possible!

    That’s very cool Paul! But I have a question, can you please look up “trek emonda/madone sweet gold leaf” and please tell/explain to me how to paint the effect on ‘TREK’ logo? Please look at the detail, that’s very cool!
    Thank you!

      I checked it out. It’s easy if you break each letter down to a shape. Email me at paul@signlogics.com and I will send a few step by step videos.
      There’s nowhere on here to attach them

    I'm thinking about doing a glass sign for a salon; Could I do the name in reverse letters in black vinyl and do the negative space inside the letter with gold leaf? I'm sure this is a noob question. thank you for sharing.

    • @PinstripingbyPaulTucker
      @PinstripingbyPaulTucker  21 день назад +1

      It is a good question. Glass gilding is traditionally done a completely different way with water size and backed up to protect the gold. it produces a mirror finish that is unparalleled. that being said, I have seen that done before and the gold is still goldish but matte. after you are done you would have to take black paint and cover the back of the letter and slight overlap on the vinyl outline.
      if I was going to put a black vinyl outline on the inside of a glass window I would probably fill it in with gold vinyl or gold metallic paint for less money and effort.

    Thanks for sharing. Beautifully done. Does the type of size matter (oil vs. water-based), to adhere the gold in order to be able to produce this effect?

    • @PinstripingbyPaulTucker
      @PinstripingbyPaulTucker  2 года назад

      Hi Bill,
      I have only done this with oil size for surface guilding.
      On glass I would think you would need to use two different golds like a 23k and and 18k on two separate guilds.

    Thanks for sharing a lot Paul. Can we do the same process for reverse glass water gilding ? or it is for just oil, size gilding ?

    • @PinstripingbyPaulTucker
      @PinstripingbyPaulTucker  2 года назад +1

      Hi Alper, you can not do it on glass because the surface you see is on the other side of the glass (through the glass). you can do it only on surface gilding with oil size. for glass you break the job into two parts and do the highlight with something like lemon gold. Full disclosure, I have not tried it on glass gilding so maybe you just invented something!!!

      @@alperhatinoglu3873 for clearcoat on surface gold go to an autobody supply company and ask them for clear with a hardener you add in and mix together. for glass gilding I use varnish. email or call www.letterheadsignsupply.com and they will guide you to what varnish is best for what you are doing.
