Hi Ali, Thank you. It’s good to see you demonstrating guilding processes. Guilding seems to be a bit of a dark art to me. I’ve bought quite a variety of ‘gold’ lacquer/paints trying to get that elusive ‘ideal’ hue and lustre. Thanks for the continuing training videos. They do help us very much. Kind regards, Raymond Burberry
Hey, Raymond! I don't know what media/substrate you are trying to cover, but I have had very good results with GOLD Rub N Buff. There are like 4? different golds, and I sometimes mix them to get the right color. The other RnB colors don't lay down or cover as reliably, but once you're familiar with the (super easy) fingertip application, you will want to do the mailbox, your cat and possibly your neighbor's ugly fence, too. Ive never tried real gilding, but leafing isn't a HUGE learning curve if you aren't happy with the RnB. Bon Chance!!
YESSSS!! I'm SO glad I found you!!! I have a couple of pieces that I have been considering using milliput to fix, and now I have tutorials! BTW I came looking for advice on cleaning gilding on fine porcelain, but this is much more welcome info. New subscriber!
As long as it is not a piece ever put up for sale and the item is only worth one’s own enjoyment, brass is ok from a distance. It’s not really restoration work, but for hobbyists who mark that the gold isn’t the usual 22k found on original pieces it’s fine. It’s when people apply $8 cheap paint on items and try to sell items as pristine that it becomes more profitable to destroy antiques. There was a guy buying Meissen teacups in poor quality off eBay and painting them with this brass paint, then reselling an item for hundreds…when people obtained their item, it was found to have three slash marks (meaning not suitable for tableware and wouldn’t have been painted with 24k gold like a table piece, but sold off to cheap painting studios who didn’t use cobalt or gold). The slash marks can easily be blurred out if they are on the side or blue blurred in to make the crossed swords look whole. Descendants will sell items if not marked as repainted with brass. Of course, I’ve seen those same kinds people scrape all the gold off a set they could have sold for over 10k GBP and cheer over the scrap of money that would cover a few pints.
Hello, it's so nice to watch your video before my porcelain repair and I do learn lot from your suggestion. But I have a question when searching for Treasure Liquid Leaf Paint, there are so many kinds, which one would you choose for usual? Like the Classic ? Thanks!
I was wondering the same as I have some beautiful cups with gold rims that need to be recovery and I have no idea how to do it and be safe for people to drink on it 😢
I am going to be touching up the gold where it has rubbed off the finish on a pretty expensive Vase. I have liquid gold leaf. Do I need to add some porcelain glaze to this? I have been repairing Porcelain for a very short time, and I learned everything from you. Thank you so much for your videos!
Brass will never match 22k or 24k gold found on original pieces, paints that are pigments with a lot of mica will never match the color and appearance of gold. Matching the gold with gold will match. However, if it’s just to hide spots on china that isn’t worth anything and will NEVER be resold without the caveat that the gold is not original, then it can make oneself happy. There are options that use gold and it’s not very much gold needed to restore a few spots…again, it needs to be documented it was restored. It’s very much a buyer beware market for anyone wanting an item to retain any value with so many people scraping off original gold and repainting with $8 brass.
I would like to put a gold edge on a serving bowl that has chipped. I used Milliput to repair the chip and need only a small amount of gold to finish the edge. What product do you suggest?

Hi there, yes i use the classic.
I'm wondering if it's possible to re-gild antique serveware, like a porcelain platter, which would be used with food?
I personally wouldn't re-guild to be used for food.

what brand of gold leaf paint do you use?

thank you, do you need to re-firing it to make colour stay on? I have load of old pieces but gold fading.
No you don't, although I wouldn't recommend putting in hot water or dishwasher.
I would like to put a gold edge on a serving bowl that has chipped. I used Milliput to repair the chip and need only a small amount of gold to finish the edge. What product do you suggest?
I would use liquid gold leaf in an old gold colour.
I did not know you could regild
what type of gold can one use on the edge of a dinner plate that is food safe?
I use liquid gold, although I am not sure it is food safe. I will make enquires into this.
@@theceramicrepairstudio Just checking if you found out of its food safe, I want to restore the gold rim on my tea cups.
It's 'Gilding'....... not 'Guilding'...😏
