You're right..The guy that does mine is retired and it's hard for me to get this stuff done...
Like Bobber said the true gold leaf work is really old skool and done with 14k leaf foil.. which is more like Kleenex than foil really..
As I understand it .. I believe they even make it in vinyl sheets now...
I run into a lot of guys that say they can do it... but getting it done good.. and proper is hard to do..
Most of my own bikes back in the 70s and 80s were gold leafed.. but not that many customers bikes, because of the expense..


Build it the way you want it ..... then learn how to ride it like you own it..
