The application of gold or other metal leaves on signs, whether routed or sandblasted gives the sign a real "edge". The letters pop out at you and glow like embers in a fire.
Our most popular metals are; Gold leaf, Palladium leaf, copper leaf with a variegated 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 variegated leaves of all kinds. We always coat any metal leaf that can tarnish with numerous coats of a two-part catalyzed 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. The metal leaf on this sign gives a cool contemporary look.
