Members Daniel Tyack Posted July 15, 2010 Members Report Posted July 15, 2010 Ok so I'm new and this may be a dumb question but how did you do the silver embossing? Is there a resource you could point me to so I can figure out the process? Thanks Quote

Is there a resource you could point me to so I can figure out the process? Thanks this was done with silver acrylic paint then sealed and a black antique applied then sealed again. if it was not going to be sat on you could use silver leaf. i would imagine the process would be the same as most other surfaces. you would not want to use silver or gold leaf on anything that will be flexed or bent as it would fracture the leaf Quote
