Manetti Oil Size - 3 Hour (500ml) - Giusto Manetti This is Manetti Oil Size — size for gilding, stocked by Letterhead Sign Supply for working gilders and sign painters. Right size under the leaf is what makes gold stay put and shine; this is the shelf the trade buys from. Size is the adhesive that grabs the gold — brush it on, wait for the right tack, and lay your leaf. Too wet and the leaf sinks; too dry and it won't catch. Test tack with your knuckle: it should pull, not slide. Every gilding method — oil, water, or glass — starts with the size going down right. Use it on liturgical ware, icons, and fine art; brush on, wait for tack, and lay the leaf. Store sealed and at room temperature; keep water-based sizes from freezing. Stir or shake gently before use and strain out any skin that forms on top. Details
