Gold 1 Shot Paint applied to each letter.

Prep work in progress.

Wright's of Lymm 23.5 carat gold leaf crackly gilding applied.

Each letter is done individually while the gold paint is still tacky.

The halo lighting is tested to ensure the gilding looks perfect before the excess is removed.

With the excess gilding removed you can see the tarnished effect it gives the lettering.

Even under lighting the gilding stands up to close scrutiny.

All letters complete, it's time to see how it looks lit up in the dark.

We think it looks fantastic.

Close up you can see how the coloured acrylic really produces a gold halo around the lettering.
