Gold leaf

Has anyone ever tried doing any gold leaf on their truck? A design or fancy emblem? Just wondered If the procedure would work on smooth, varnished wood. I’ve only seen it on videos and not sure of the exact method or adhesive to use.

Re: Gold leaf

Gold leaf has been used on wooden art work for centuries.

Re: Gold leaf

Hmm
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah true if I’d thought about it. I have this idea about trying it.
