Premium British-Made Acrylic Gilding Paint for Luxurious Metallic Finishes
Created for makers who value craftsmanship and quality, it delivers a professional gilded look with remarkable ease. A British‑made metallic paint system is a luxurious alternative to traditional gold leaf and gilding. Trusted by Master Gilders across the UK for heritage buildings, churches and stately homes, it's also the number one go‑to for interior designers and artisans.
Formulated with a proprietary pigment system, Super GILD dries hard like enamel for a realistic, metallic gilded finish that's beautifully easy to use. Ideal for ceiling roses, panelling and interior mouldings, and suitable for metal, glass, ceramic, plastic, stone, wood, plaster and more.
Super Gild is meticulously crafted in Britain using a unique, innovative pigment and a proprietary resin system that offers exceptional adhesion, durability, and clarity. The formula is densely packed with a high-grade pigment system, resulting in a true metallic lustre unlike standard craft metallics. This premium composition ensures superior opacity, smooth flow, and an elegant, gilded sheen that remains vibrant over time.
This water-based enamel paint is extremely hardwearing, fade-resistant, scratch-resistant, and fully suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Its all-in-one formulation requires no topcoat, making it an unrivalled choice for artists, designers, and high-end furniture refinishers seeking a luxury metallic finish without specialist training.

Ensure the surface is clean and dry. Some very smooth or glossy surfaces may require light sanding or priming for best adhesion. Apply using a brush, roller, or sponge. One coat provides strong coverage; apply a second coat for the smoothest, most luxurious metallic finish. No topcoat is required. For high-traffic surfaces, a clear gloss topcoat may be used to maintain the lustre.
