The skin on your knuckle should feel a nice steady pull when you take your knuckle away from the surface. If you have any residue on your skin it is too soon. If you do not feel a pull similar to removing masking tape from your skin, you waited too long and should re-apply the size. Please keep in mind that gilding is an art in itself and expect a lot of trial and error before you get it right.<br /> <br /> If you have any large gilding projects in the works, we would be happy to offer price quotations on gallons of size and full packs of leaf.
