Revainrating 5 out of 5

GOLD IMITATION IN BOOK

(1) GOLD COMPOSITION (ie GOLD IMITATION): The composition of gold leaf is 86% copper and 15% zinc. The packaging says its brilliance is comparable to 23k gold. A gold composite sheet (as opposed to pure gold) is an alloy, which means it must be sealed to prevent oxidation from prolonged exposure to air. Because it's faux gold foil, it's significantly cheaper than real gold foil (compare $50 vs. $10). Therefore, this product is ideal for those who are interested in non-professional crafts. (2) VERY THIN SHEETS: Sheets of foil are very thin, so the foil sticks to the adhesive easily. (3) BOOKLET: Gold foil is included in a small 5.5x booklet. 5.5 inches. The booklet has 25 pages with gilding. Each gold leaf page had a title page. The front page is very useful because the gold sticks to it. When you apply the foil you can hold the protective foil and press the gold against the glue. This will prevent the gold from falling apart in your fingers when trying to apply it. GENERAL: While this product may not be suitable for the professional artist as it mimics gold foil, it is ideal for the average arts and crafts enthusiast. ! The booklet makes it easier to attach and store the film.
