Giusto Manetti Wunda Size - water based gold size

Versatile adhesive, suitable for a wide range of indoor applications on various porous substrates (wood, plaster, stucco). Its water-based polyvinyl acetate formulation provides fast bonding with short open times, allowing the application of thicker and stiffer metal leaves, such as imitation metal leaf.

Use method
Prepare the substrate by ensuring it is clean, dry and free from dust or other contaminants. On highly porous surfaces, it is recommended to apply a suitable sealer beforehand to regulate absorption.
If necessary, the product may be diluted with water or alcohol up to a maximum of 30%.
Apply the size in thin, even coats, avoiding excessive build-up and ensuring uniform coverage.
Gilding can generally be carried out approximately 15 minutes after application, up to a maximum of 3 hours, depending on the substrate and environmental conditions.
