Gold Leaf Sign making has been noted as the aristocracy of the sign profession for ages. There is no other metal that has the lasting and tarnish proof finish of 24K Gold. Gold leaf is pounded down to app. 3.5 millionths of an inch in thickness, and is so thin you can see through it. This way many square feet of metal surface can be created from just an ounce of gold. Gold leaf is resistant to most kinds of weather, and outlasts virtually any painted surfaces. Gold is the most tarnish resistant metal known to mankind.
