I see bowls and other turnings with a colored metallic highlighting. I assume it is some kind of gilding paste, but what kind? I see gilding wax at Michael's craft store, but I would think you wouldn't be able to finish over wax.
What should I be looking for?
Thanks,
Rick

I imagine there are a few ways. Personally, I purchased powdered metal. I put it in a groove that I carved or cut and it is set with superglue. (thin).

It was Jimmy Clews who make the product well known and he got his in England and then Turners supply was able to stock it a year or so ago.
