Antique Mirror Rub On Metallic Foil by APS
Full instructions are sent with your order, but here’s our recommended way to foil on wood:
1. Paint a base colour on your project - leave to dry for at least 24 hours
2. Apply a thin layer of the Artsyville Foil adhesive
3. Wait for the glue to go clear, and then dry to a tacky but dry feel - this will take at least 1 hour
4. Once tacky, place foil over surface with the pattern side facing up
5. Rub the foil with a cloth/toothbrush & peel back cellophane
6. Topcoat with a water based varnish
