CQS41001

CQS41001 Gold patina (yellow gold), metallic

Solvent-borne metallic patina in a yellow-gold shade. Sprayed over PU or acrylic primers/enamels; once dry the excess is cut back by hand with steel wool or a Scotch-Brite pad so the gold stays in pores, recesses, panel profiles and on edges. Fast drying, easy to wipe back, very low consumption. Must always be locked in with a clear lacquer.

  • ageing and decapé effects on interior furniture and woodwork
  • highlighting carvings, raised panels, mouldings, frames and decorative elements
  • patina over enamel (classic / Provence look)
  • gold in the pores of open-pore oak
  • PU-foam (PPU) mouldings and décor
  • special effects: metallised enamel, Desert Rose (over HTL10001 frost)
