Gold and Metal Leaf Signs

 

Gold and Metal Leaf on Signs

The thing about gold leaf is it looks beautiful; it's classy and grabs people's attention. Even when the sun isn't shining directly on it, gold and other metal leaves can glow.

It gets noticed which means its working at the job it was purchased to do, if you are a business.   MAKING YOU MONEY!

And if you are not a business it is still getting your sign seen. And let's face it if you don't want your sign seen this is the wrong site for you.

Gold leaf looks just as wonderful on a rustic country sign as it does on a very formal professional sign. If intergrated into the sign design correctly gold leaf will work almost anywhere.

Our most popular metals are; Gold leaf, Palladium leaf, copper leaf with varigated leaf coming up close behind.  

 Silver and palladium leaf is a design alternative that works well with contemporary and modern sign designs. We use palladium, because like gold, it does not tarnish, and we always clear coat copper because it could if left to the open air, the same goes for varigated leaves of all kinds. we always coat any metal leaf that can tarnish with numerous coats of a two part catalized clear coat to protect it for many many years.

Mister P's sign was sandblasted hdu and we used palladium on the prismatic letters, as the customer wanted a sandblasted sign that was really different but very effective.  Metal leaf on this sign gives a cool contemporary look.

Featured Sign of the Month

Uwharrie Point Country Club Main Entrance

This PVC Monument Sign is approx 8ft high by 14ft. wide and was originally made from Redwood. After approx 25 years it had rotted. The board of the residents association were very keen to keep the original appearance exactly the same as the original but they wanted it to be from a material that wouldn't rot.  We had access to  the original architects drawings, so we set about converting the plans into a computer file engineered to be made from PVC and aluminum but to look exactly like the original. Every piece of coving and molding was made in house, and then assembled into three pieces which were transported to the site where it was assembled. The whole monument sign was painted with six coats of a high quality Benjamin Moore latex paint ( it lasts longer on PVC than paints costing over $100 .00/gall more. Then apart from the center panel all of the monument was painted once more by brush and as it was drying the brushes were dragged carefully along the length of each section creating a wood grain effect; thus removing any appearance of the sign looking plastic.
