Gilding test

The application of the gold leaf is tested in various ways by using multiple chemical formulas that characterize different aesthetics and mechanics.

Resistance test

The decoration of motorcycle parts made with the technique of gilding are catalyzed and made stable, and durable to the action of time and weather. Only after this process, that takes about 15 days, we can proceed with the artistic design.

Processes in metallic leaf : gold, silver, copper...

Most of our artistic creations are made by completely covering the object with metallic leaf foils. Then we work with airbrush, brushes etc.

Thanks to enormous experience in the field of interior and exterior gilding and the study of the technique at the prestigious ateliers in Vienna, we have developed and perfected many special technics in the field of "Kustom Art".

Our applications in metal leaf are subjected to numerous tests that check their artistic and aesthetic quality as well as, not less important but rather of primary importance, resistance, durability and the degree of inalterability to atmospheric agents.

Starting from a simple cover in gold or silver, we are able to carry out extremely elaborate variations which offer infinite possibilities for original aesthetic and artistic solutions of great impact.

Each of these laminations requires several days of "crystallization" and special chemical treatments to ensure strength and durability.
