How does keum-boo work?
Pure precious metals, such as silver and gold, have about the same atomic structure, therefore, they have an increased potential to be united (fused). Thus, heating these metals to temperatures between 500 and 700°C causes the movement of atoms to increase. If pressure is added, an exchange of electrons will result on the surface between the two metals, creating a solid and permanent bond.
Important to know:
- 22k Gold Paste is applied in thin layers. After applying each layer, dry the piece well and then burn it. You need to apply at least 2 coats to have a shiny yellow gold.
- Do not apply all 3 coats at once! Otherwise the gold will exfoliate from the piece.
- After burning the first layer, it is normal for it not to be noticeable. It will be seen only after the second one.
- If you haven't used the paste for a long time, and it's dry, you can dilute it with 1-2 drops of distilled water.
- Dedicate a brush just for this gold paste, thus avoiding contamination and/or loss of precious metal.
- 1,5 g of gold paste, enough to gild at least 4 wedding rings (the entire surface)
Quantity: 1.5g paste (77.5% pure 24K gold, obtained from recycling)
