Application Technique : BL Gold Coat

BL Gold Coat, being a thin film, is very sensitive to the state of its underlying surface, including any small scratches there might be, polishing and grinding marks, the evenness of the application surface, and the extent of its mirror finishing; therefore when it is applied, we recommend close attention be paid to the substrate. Additionally, make sure to completely remove any damaging adhesives such as oil, water, moisture, or dust and ash present on the substrate before application. Additionally, please consider that since BL Gold Coat is manufactured from 24K gold, even though it lacks the protection of our top coat, the discoloration it experiences as time passes is the same as traditional gold leaf.

1Polish the application surface to a mirror sheen, then completely degrease.

2Coat the surface with BL Gold Coat specialty primer using a spry gun or air brush.
The use of a paintbrush or roller is also possible.
The thickness should be around 30~50μ.
Dry at room temperature for a period depending on the season.

Please let the primer harden completely.
