We had a chance to work with the Krylon gold leafing pen and have some tips for you below.
The Krylon gold leafing pen has what is called a chisel tip, which allows you to vary the width of your painting strokes and it comes unprimed.
To prime the Krylon gold leafing pen and get it ready for use, first you shake it for about 30 seconds. Then you keep pressing down until the paint makes its way into the tip. Don’t stop until the tip is fully saturated so you can draw smooth lines. Almost all gold paint pens need priming first before you can go ahead and use it.
The gold finish resembles actual metal plating and I wasn’t sure of the hard tip at first, but it is actually really helpful because even with rigid surfaces like a seashell, it painted on really easily and evenly.
One thing you should know is that you do need to bring the pigment down every so often to keep the pigment flowing or the ink will end up skipping. And if you are using this for lettering, it doesn't have a really smooth outline like a soft brush would. The fine liners are better for that.
If you do like a finished look you may have to go over the edges with a dark color or black, which looks beautiful.
