AMACO Rub n Buff Wax Metallic Finish - Rub n Buff Gold Leaf 15ml Tube - Versatile Gilding Wax for Finishing Furniture Antiquing and Restoration - Rub and Buff Colors Single Tube

Once you’ve got the hang of it, it goes a long way and works really well! Experiment on something unimportant first though, it recommends using your finger but I found that gave too much of a matte covering so I used a toothbrush and got a really lovely patina effect!It’s slightly translucent, I find it looks best either applied to something already gold to give it more dimension or something painted black first to give it an aged look

We used this on two things: grouting and to create a feature on a painted wall. Application is easy, just rub it and buff it. The grouting application is best done with an old toothbrush (or new if you're feeling flush). The ceramic tiles then just rub off fairly easily. The wall application is the same, however the surface needs to be perfect as any imperfections will show. The other thing is if you want a uniform application with no patina of application - i think you need to look elsewhere. However, in the sun it glimmers gold like no paint Ive tried. Its brilliant stuff.

4 stars as it can transfer if not thoroughly rubbed and some small areas can have shiny patches but doesnt effect look

Have used this stuff for years. Always have a couple of different colours handy as they are so versatile. Dries quickly and buffs well.

I used this gold leaf colour to transform a shabby wooden frame by first painting it red and applying the gold leaf on top using my finger while my wife guffawed with laughter at my singing the James Bond goldfinger song (and breathe).I let bits of red show through especially at the mouldings and it looks so good.You can use a brush to apply it but you will use a bit more gold leaf.A little goes a long way and the tube says it covers 20 square feet!It washes off with soap and water.Recommended.

Easy to use and a little goes a long way. I restored the gold on my mirror and used under a quarter of a tube, I would buy again, great product.

Love it! I restore gramophones and not yet advanced enough to do proper gold plating, so this stuff is a godsend. Gets my hardware looking good, and can be rubbed off for whenever I'm ready to properly plate it. Withstands a fair amount of abuse as well once applied

Good for giving wood a metallic 'glow'. No good on anything without a grain i.e metal or plastic. Probably be better using a child's gold pen then a bit of furniture polish.
