Kölner Ceramic gilding size KT-5-HV in gel form. With this product, small imperfections and bursts in ceramic material can be filled. After film building, it can be gilded with transfer genuine or imitation gold leaf. The result is a high gloss gilding.
Gilding size for mirror gloss gilding on china and ceramics. Formulated for repairing of small cracks of gilded china or ceramics. KT-5 / KT-5hv is a water based non burnishable size for transfer gold leaf. KT5-HV should be applied with a small spatula or surface knife. The metal shine is mirror like after polishing with Instacoll Tissue. KT5, KT5-HV can be intermixed and thinned with water.
Ceramic and Porcelain cavities can be refilled directly with kt5 or kt5 hv. The drying time depends on the thickness of application. Apply the gold leaf gently and press using an Instacoll Tissue or a wool brush.
The Kolner KT5-HV Ceramics Size is thicker than the KT-5 Ceramic Size and thus makes it better for filling small cracks.
You can also use this size for gilding a new ceramic or china object.
