Gilding and Metallic Effects – A Video Showcase

You can have the look of metal on any surface in your home

You can have the look of metal on ceilings, a niche, moldings and walls. Metal leaf or metallic paints can be applied over drywall, plaster, wood, metal, plastic and even glass. The key is to use the appropriate primer to ensure good mechanical bond with the surface to be decorated.

Metallic paints are worthwhile substitutes for metal leaf

In the last decade, the painting industry has developed many exciting metallic paints that can be used both inside and outside. Those paints can be rolled, brushed, sprayed, even sponged on. Because many of these metallic paints use mica powders, a great variety of colors and looks can be achieved. Using metallic paints gives you a metallic look at a lower cost than real metal.

Real gold, silver, copper, platinum or composite leaf make surfaces look like real metal

Metal leaf is real metal, hammered into a tissue-like thickness and held in place by a tacky varnish. Often, the leafed surface will be varnished to give added protection to the metal leaf or shield it from the oxidation process. The process is relatively labor intensive. However, it gives you the reflectivity and brilliance only metal can give you. Glazes or acids can be used over the metal leaf to give it an aged or distressed appearance. Metal effects are cool!
