I haven't had a chance to use these flakes yet but the colours are absolutely gorgeous. Can't wait to try them.
This product is absolutely vile. The colors are beautiful and vibrant, but the product is terrible. The flakes are vey small and they cling to everything. I mean everything within 10 feet of the pot. The flakes, once they cling, will not brush off, even with a swiffer. Running water and a sponge were required to remove flakes from my usual gilding flake brush and my glass paper weight that was literally 3 feet away from the pot. My floor may never be the same.
I have used other brands of gilding flakes and have loved the effects. I was very disappointed to find this brand had VERY tiny flakes, almost to the point of dust, rather than the large pieces found in other brands. The gilding effect was very difficult to achieve. Also the actual colors received are quite different from the representations. Learned my lesson. Will only use the other brands.
