Plasti-Kote B31W B31 Bottle 59ML Gold Leaf

I recommend

I had a mirror with grey surround. Changed my decor and wanted to get rid of grey but liked my mirror. So I bought paint and now it's gold. I've used this paint many times on items it will cover any material including metal and leaves a great finish. Easy to use two or three coats and the job's done.

First coat is quick drying but if using for animals then you will need more than one coat and takes time to dry if doing multiple coats

Bought to coat my hamsters hide as he seems to love peeing up the sides -_- applied 4 thin coats. It’s quick drying, doesn’t stink but is quite sticky. Easy to use but is a very small pot but having said that there was plenty for what I needed it for. Plus my hamsters hide doesn’t make my eyes water anymore

Very good experience

This really helps protect wooden items from small animal liquid haha, it’s easy to paint on and dries quickly. It doesn’t change the colour or appearance of things much and is great value for how much use it gets.

I bought a selection for painting fiurines, a matte black, a gold and a red metallic.The matte black was easiest to use, very little mixing needed and a good solid matte black finish.The red metallic also needed very little mixing however it did not give a metallic finish on any of them, is really just a glossy red.Tye gold was the trickiest as the actual gold pigment had clumped at the bottom like old chewed chewing gum and needed a lot of mixing and working back into tye clear solvent to actually make a gold paint, however when it was finally mixed together after 10 minutes or so it was a lovely gold leaf finish as advertised.

I have used this product for years on various jobs ranging from coating old catches after stabilising any rust, gate springs, hinge plates, to cover sealant where an alkyd paint cannot be used and many other jobs all without issue. Cleaning brushes is not a problem. If you are using a small brush, it is simple to clean the brush at regular intervals with water to avoid clogging although this rarely happens in my opinion. It is always surprising how good the result is, especially the gloss finish. I have found that a pot will last for a long time but make sure the lid is securely tightened as it can be screwed on at a slight angle if you are not careful.
