Questions & Answers

Will it work on a costume gold bangle [bracelet] that has a tarnished finish?

Yes, I believe it would; I've used it on a variety of surfaces with great success. I hope it turns out well for you.

Sealing this product appears to be tarnishing the gold. So, if the gilding isn't sealed, is it okay to leave it as is?

Mine is still looking gold after being sealed with epoxy. I just finished it, so sealing it with epoxy will suffice unless it turns coppery over time.

Is it possible to use this product on metal?

Yes, this product can be used on metal projects that are indoors.

Is it possible to use it on a plastic surface?

Yes. That's exactly what I did with it, and I'm very pleased with the outcome.

Selected User Reviews For Martha Steward Crafts Gilding Adhesive, 2oz.

Only apply to non-touchable items
3/5

The gold color is absolutely stunning. I'm in love with the color! For me, the only drawback is that the gold tarnishes and rubs off so easily. This is ideal for use on non-touchable items. It rubbed off in a day when I used it for ceramic jewelry pendants. br>I also tried sealing it with a couple of clear spray paints, but they reacted with the gold and turned it an ugly orange color.

It appears to be made of metal
5/5

I bought this before to use as a border around the edges of some polymer clay coasters, and it's really cute and looks like it's made of metal. There is only an aluminum screw in it. It's not the best seal because of the cap (and that lil piece of paper in the cap). If you want to be safe, wipe the jar's edges and cap before replacing it. So, while the packaging isn't ideal, it is manageable. My first jar dried up near the end, and I looked for a similar product in stores, but everything is acrylic water base, and no matter what the bottle says, it does not have that gilded look. This is one of them. However, it does fade over time, but only slightly, and it could simply be a drying process. The photos are from now, but they are of something from my first bottle, which was years ago.

BUY IT! I'd give this a perfect score of 11! I've been crafting for a long time and have most likely tried every metallic paint there is
5/5

And I'm a big fan of this color. This is the second time I've bought it. Which is saying a lot considering I still have a lot of craft supplies that I don't care for in my craft closet. It's of excellent quality, with a thick and durable cover. The color of the gold is stunning, and you can see a lustrous reflection in the shine. Too light or too green is not a good combination. Furthermore, Amazon offers a significantly lower price than retail stores.

The gilding is magnificent
4/5

My kids used clay to make these adorable marbled jewelry dishes, and Martha Stewart liquid gilding was the perfect finishing touch. Everyone praised the bowls because they appeared to be professional.

My daughter wanted a dog-themed bathroom, but the sticker decals for one wall were $200. So I was able to print some stencils from the internet and have FedEx blow them up to the size I needed, and then I used this paint, which worked perfectly.

MY NEW FAVORITE THING! This item is for sale
5/5

I'm so obsessed with Martha Stewart Gold Flake Paint that I could paint my entire life with it! I used it to make the antlers of my cardboard paper maché deer head wall hanging look gold dipped. I was hesitant to use it at first, but it is so vibrant and perfect! Just shake it well before using!.

However, if any of the gilding wears off, it's a great product
4/5

Great product, but if any of the gilding gets on the outside, it needs to be washed off. Mine is currently gilded shut, and no amount of force has been able to open it. However, there is a lovely color:.

The product is of good quality and is reasonably priced, but it is poisonous
4/5

This guilt-inducing gold is absolutely gorgeous. I'm looking forward to sharing photos of the Japanese-themed party. We're going to guild a style of broken ceramic pitcher. br>br>The gold has a nice consistency and looks like real liquid gold. br>br>Unfortunately, the product comes with a long list of health warnings. Ms. Stewart had to be able to come up with some other ingredients that were less harmful to the users, right? br>br>Overall, I'm pleased, but dismayed by the level of toxicity.
