Gold Leaf Gilding Adhesive Set, 100ml Water Based Glue and 100ml Varnish, Gold Leaf Sheets 100 pcs, 2 Brushes, for Craft, Painting and Arts

I used the Wadities Gold Leaf Gilding Adhesive Set to finish the edges of a custom floral wall panel, and the results were absolutely beautiful. The adhesive went on smoothly, dried evenly, and held the gold leaf perfectly in place—even over textured wood. How I Used It I applied the adhesive around the wooden border of my 18x18 rose and sunflower wall piece. The wood had slight natural texture, but the adhesive grabbed onto it cleanly without pooling or leaving streaks. Once it turned tacky, the gold leaf sheets adhered instantly and without slipping. Performance & Finish Quality • The tack time is reliable—just enough working time, but not so long that you’re waiting forever to apply leaf. • The gold leaf adhered evenly, with minimal tearing and no patchy spots. • Once sealed, the finish looked rich, metallic, and high-end. • Even after handling the piece and shifting it around while adding flowers, the gold leaf didn’t flake off. The adhesive brush-on formula made it really easy to control exactly where the gold would go, especially around corners and inner edges. What Stood Out • The adhesive doesn’t have a harsh smell like some gilding glues. • A little goes a long way—great value for the amount you get. • The gold leaf sheets are flexible and forgiving, even for beginners. Pros • Smooth, easy application • Strong bond that prevents flaking • Works beautifully on wood • Dries clear and tacky, perfect for leafing • Great sheen and color on the gold sheets Cons • The sheets are delicate (as all gold leaf is), so patience is needed • Best results come with thin layers—too much adhesive can slow dry time Who This Is Perfect For DIY décor makers, artists, furniture upcyclers, and anyone looking to add gold accents to wood, canvas, resin, or mixed-media projects. Final Verdict This set gave my floral panel the perfect high-end finishing touch. The adhesive works exactly as it should, the gold leaf is beautiful, and the results look professionally done. I’d absolutely use this kit again.

This is one of my favorite gold leaf products. I've bought it a couple of times now. I use it to give some accent to my acrylic paintings. Even after being sealed with varnish, it keeps its shine. I love that if I put too much, it's not very difficult to paint over it. It does take some time to dry. I recommend letting it sit for a couple of days to cure, if not longer, before applying any type of sealant. It does come with its own, and it works fantastically. I also used it to give some accent to some frames for my paintings. I highly recommend it. The color is beautiful, neither too yellow nor too dull. The glue quality is pretty good, you do have to apply enough of it, though, if not, it dries up, and sometimes it's not sticky enough. The container that the glue comes in is pretty well sealed.

My project came out better then I had expected! I am very pleased with the effectiveness of this little kit. Its relatively easy to use, although there is definitely a learning curve. The adhesive gets tacky fairly quickly. The foil itself is probably the most difficult part. Its very fragile once you get it off the paper. I recommend leaving it on the paper and using the paper as a sort of handle for the foil. When I tried to pull the foil off the paper for application it literally just tore apart and crumbled all over my hands. The lacquer is pretty cool too. I like that it adds a bit of protection for all the work it takes to get the gold foil to stuck. Lol. And it doesn't stink up the whole house! The luster is quite brilliant considering this is my first time ever trying this type of thing. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to add gold foil to a project. If you fallow the directions you will be successful!

Gosh I have been having fun with this gold leaf. It’s kind of addicting to apply the gold leaf to different things and see how well the foil lies down. I gilded a pair of earrings that had become worn and they look better than new. The glue is very effective, sticks well, the foil is a nice rich gold, and it lasts. The sealant works well too.

It was good overall but I did not like the glue that came with it! I prefer to add a more layer of glue over the gold foils to ensure that they are sticking to the canvas. The glue stays sticky and doesn't dry. If you want to use it as instructed, then it will be good but with my way, it wasn't good enough. Value for money is good Color is good

works great but gets everywhere it was in my hair not complaining thought that it was funny. Me and my fiance had a good laugh about it everywhere But it does work great bought it for my wedding I used it on bottles that im using as vases for my wedding. If was to use this again I would do it in a garage instead of inside my house. I wasn't to smart there lol but the bottles turned out great. Very easy to use just make sure you wash your brush that your using right after your done using the glue and varnish. Cause it will ruin the paint brushes they give you if you don't. It stuck to the glasses bottles great. Bought some more to finish the rest of the bottles would get again.

Soo nice for making greeting cards! Very fragile, but works great if you are very gentle with it

J'emploie ces feuilles dorées dans mes peintures acryliques et je suis très satisfaite du résultat.

I like the set which contains: - Gold Foils (100pcs of small square shape) - Gilding Adhesive (100ml) - Varnish (100ml) - Brushes (2pcs size No.3)

Sehr gutes Produkt. Lässt sich gut verarbeiten und hält super. Nur nicht durch die Artikelbeschreibung täuschen lassen. Es ist kein echtes Blattgold. Wäre bei dem Preis auch nicht realistisch.

Perfect for your gilding projects.

Great price point for starting to use gold foil. It's trickier than I thought so when I put the foil down I ended up getting much larger areas of the foil than I had intended. Good price for practicing for real gold foil. The glue is quite simple and straight forward although I used a much smaller brush to get the lines I wanted, and the varnish is lovely, but not nearly enough of it if you want to use this on a painting. I used half on the bottle on a 10x12 canvas. Will have to get more.
