Roberson : Water Gold : Size 15ml

Traditional size for illumination. Made with natural gums. Yellow colour.

For gilding or repairing, with gold leaf or bronze powder on frames, paper or glass. 

Stir the water gold size gently with the end of a paintbrush. A vigorous shake will introduce air bubbles, which you should avoid. Paint over the area to be gilded with a brush. Allow to dry, which may take between 10 to 20 minutes. While it is still tacky apply the gold. If the gold size dries out too much, then its stickiness can be reactivated by breathing directly over the applied size.
