If you feel a lot of roughness or surface blemishes, use grit sandpaper to sand it to your desired smoothness.
Canvas, wood, Masonite, paper, glass, plastic, metal and any other surface that can be made non-absorbent can be used for copper leafing. Put down newspaper to protect the work area and floor as you work. Prime the surface. Wipe down the surface with a tack cloth to remove leftover sanding dust.
Use a paint brush to apply the primer of your choice. Common options for primer are gesso and various kinds of paint acrylic, casein, egg tempura, latex, house, oil.
If you plan to burnish the surface, it must be made absolutely smooth first. Burnishing is when you polish metallic leaf until it's very shiny. Consider using a burnish primer created specifically for this process. Apply the bole. Use a paint brush to apply the base color of your choice. Applying a base color, or undercolor, can help enhance the finished look by slightly changing the overall color tone. Red, grey and ochre are popular choices for bole.
After applying the bole, allow it to dry completely before moving on to the size application. Yellow ochre can even out the surface appearance and help to disguise cracks or blemishes.
Part 2. Choose the right size for your project. There are two options available — water-based or oil-based size. Oil-based size is the most traditional choice.
It is meant to be used for small projects or whenever you have a limited time frame to work within. Slow-set oil size will reach tack in ten to twelve hours. It is intended for larger projects that require a lot of work time. It comes to tack within twenty minutes, and remains workable for about thirty hours.
