Awesome article Brian. I saw a feature where gold leaf was applied to fire engine design. It is fascinating how the leaf is applid then twisted. Here is a link to the process. Scroll down past first story.

Great Article Brian.
Looking forward to seeing your How-To

I'll have to show my painter this, so he can check it out. I know he likes goldleaf. He just did some lettering on a helmet. Plus we had to match a 2008 Screamin Eagle stripe which was done in goldleaf.
