INFORMATION
Manetti gelatine sheets are an adhesive suitable for water gilding on glass. Available in packs of 5 sheets that can be easily cut or broken into individual pieces.
Composition
Animal gelatine
Method of use
The gelatine is dissolved in warm distilled water to produce a transparent glue. It is recommended to stay below the boiling temperature. The amount of gelatine, expressed in “diamonds,” varies depending on the application and the type of leaf used: the thicker and heavier the leaf, the greater the amount of gelatine needed to achieve a sufficiently strong glue. On average, it is recommended to use 4 diamonds of gelatine for every litre of water.
Storage
Store in a fresh, dry place, away from water and humidity.
