    You have a world of patience. Love the work you do. Someday I may try this. I’m still trying to get good at wrapping guides on old rods that I just don’t want to give up on. 😊

    I've worked with gold leaf and other metal leafs but not on rods. Easy to work with and gives a great look. I look forward to using this in rod building.

      Thank you for watching Guy, and let me know how it goes for you on the rod. I’ve got a couple more videos on working in that cover other techniques with gold leaf.

    Nice work John. Will give it a try at some point. Thank you for your instructional style. If you ever do in person classes I'm in. Maybe test the waters if you would ever consider that.

    Nice job man, just wondering why you didn't use the drywall tape? Too close on the gaps?

      Yes, and it just looks better with the thread below it. Thank you for watching and commenting Jeffrey. 🙏

    Just curious, what is the purpose of putting colour preserver onto the gold leaf for ? Does it darken without it?
    Thanks!

    • @reelbluecustomrods
      @reelbluecustomrods  4 місяці тому +1

      Great question. I feel like it seals any loose edges on the gold leaf and also helps preserve the color of it as well. Hope this helps, and thank you for watching and commenting.
