I must agree with you. Dave Smith is without any doubt the finest gilder in the world. I have known Dave for 30 years.. We met at Fine Gold Sign in California. That was 30 years ago. We exchange photos of the breakfasts we eat. I will send Dave a photo of an embossing tool I made about 30 years ago. Will request he send it to you. It is made from 2 pieces of old bug rake. Wired to a bit of bamboo. I liked it because it was easy to tuck into tight areas. the pattern was much more diverse than yours. I do love the patterns you make. You can look up 4 videos I made. Gold leaf tips with Joe Balabuszko. Dave likes them. I would appreciate any critique you make.

@dxrobins 3 года назад

Fantastic. I was a bit surprised that the mirror spray worked. I tried something vaguely similar (without the etching and glue-chipping a few years back) and the paint sort of dissolved the vinyl. It was kind of melty and peeled off the glass. It might have been the Rustoleum mirror spray though. Anyhow, thanks for making these. :)

@happygilder 3 года назад

Hi The Krylon is good but it has limitations. It dissolves enamel paint so you have to mask the areas of the sign that are already painted. The rust oleum mirror effect paint is pretty much the same. I have a video where I test them both and compare them to gold leaf: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bHiCDRcq8IQ.html

you can also buy diamond grit burs in different grits plus you can also use diamond pastes in different grit/micron sizes on a polishing buff to help change the shading levels as well all using the dremel so its a really handy device. I'm just curious - can you use anything besides hide glue for the chipping?? - its very hard to source from where i'm at

Respect for your work, art and willing to share your expirience. After the glue chip, do you treat it with something or just live it and moove on.

Etching cream will definitely give a more even finish, but it won’t glue chip because the results are too smooth

Instead of a Dremel, could you use sandpaper to "roughen up" the glass? How thick is the glass that you normally use? Awesome videos! Just watching all of your videos and they have got me really excited to start a new hobby.

@happygilder Год назад

Hi, I'm not sure if it's gold leaf. The tiles were there when we moved in so I don't know anything about them. I've never gilded tiles myself but I imagine it will work the same. You'd just seal it with clear lacquer and then rub the excess gold away

If I'd attempted it, at best it may resemble a map of Poland if I were lucky. So I'm wondering, could you glue chip on chemically etched glass perhaps?

@happygilder 2 года назад

Unfortunately glue chipping doesn't work on chemically etched glass because the finish is too smooth for the glue to grip onto. I reckon you could make this one no problem. All you need is a set square and a knife ;-)

@albertshilton5336 2 года назад

Thanks Paul for showing some basics here. This looks look a good project for me to start with 👍. I'm still trying to get my hands on the correct sort of hide glue. Something I was wondering, if you apply hide glue on glass without using a stencil, then cut it to shape at the jelly stage, will it chip only where the glue is applied, or do you need make like a score line to stop it chipping over the designated edge? If you know what I mean. Hang on, I think I've answered my own question - I guess it should chip only where its been etched!!

@happygilder 2 года назад

This is definitely a good project to get started, and not a lot of tools required :) You always need to trim/score the glue, otherwise the chip will carry on through the edge of the clear areas

Hi Paul. I was just finishing up a sign that I made for a friend's birthday. I had painted the colored part with one shot enamel and then sprayed the looking glass spray over the chipped part and over the back of the one shot (basically the reverse of what you did) and the paints reacted and lifted the one shot up. Should I have used a hardener with the one shot? Any info would be appreciated.

@happygilder 2 года назад

Hi Myles, sorry for the delay in responding. Krylon is brutal on enamel but you can get away with using it. I always double up on the coats of enamel and spray the Krylon in really thin coats. On the occasions where it lifted the enamel, I use a q-tip dipped in cellulose thinner to rub away the affected area and then repaint it.

Thanks. My final product came out with a few cracks. Is there a minimum glass thickness required?

@Brazzo82Ayeye 2 года назад

hello man! i have a hobby with glass and sandblaster, but i would like to try the glue stuff, where can i find that glue ? is there any advice on how to get it ?

@happygilder 2 года назад

Howdy! The glue I use is called 'Liberon Pearl Glue'. It's easy to get in the UK but quite expensive anywhere else. I would suggest asking on the Facebook group. There are lots of people having success with glue chipping from all over the world, so someone on there will be will be able to help you with a supplier :)

@manlymcstud8588 3 года назад

what's artificially activating the chipping process, is it heat or is there a humidity component, too? would allowing the chipping to happen if just set aside for a week or two make a difference in the pattern?

@scotthendricks79 3 года назад

35% humidity and the hide glue being 140 degrees. Proteins align and hopefully it ferns. It's all science

@@scotthendricks79 ah, gotcha, thanks. one video series the guy puts them in a box to control things, but his aren't how-to videos so it's a mystery of what exactly he's doing. our friend here sets it on a heater of some kind, but hasn't mentioned humidity or proper temps that i've seen. someone else mentioned that left alone with no controls at all and it will naturally chip, but that could take up to three weeks depending on the ambient conditions.

No tempered glass won’t chip because it’s stronger than the glue. I always use plate glass

Acid etching won’t work for glue chipping because the etch is too smooth. The surface needs to be rough for the glue to grip on to :)

@@happygilder I started a new job in Oct 2021 and we have a sandblasting booth in the workshop! I hope to get a chance to use it to try glue chipping. I was explaining the process to a fellow employ yesterday. And we were wondering what they would have used in the 1800's to mask off the glass. Do you know? I'm sure they cut the designs by hand...no matter what masking material they used.

@ripperjack 3 года назад

As a lazy person I find myself wondering what happens if you don't trim the glue after it gels. If the excess glue is on top of vinyl it shouldn't do anything to the glass underneath. The only point of failure I can think of is if it causes the glue on top of the glass to not adhere and chip correctly. Any experience with this?

@scotthendricks79 3 года назад

It pulls up

@happygilder 3 года назад

The trimming process sets the boundaries for the glue to retract. If the glue is retracting in towards the etched areas, then there's less chance it will take a piece of un-etched glass with it :)

@scotthendricks79 3 года назад

@@happygilder Paul try this, make your design then add a 3 to 4 mm boarder around it. Take it and blast up to the 3 mm line. Then apply your Hyde glue carefully and you don't have to cut anything. Plus if it goes over anything less than 3mm it pulls that up and boom, you have a bright line ready to go. It hardly ever 98% chips past that. Makes projects go faster.

Hi Paul, I'll start by saying Love your work, and your will to teach others is admirable BUT when etching glass with a Dremel you should ALWAYS wear glasses and a mask!!! Even w/ a wet technique glass powder can get in your lungs and it will never leave - - Safety First! Take care, Kind regards
