The Kölner Fine Detail Kit has been developed to apply fine details and decorative elements cleanly and evenly. The applicator fits comfortably in the hand and, thanks to the different needle tips, allows both very fine and slightly thicker lines – ideal for demanding creative work. The set is particularly suitable for the Kintsugi technique, in which cracks in ceramics or porcelain are intentionally highlighted with gold. The included 23 karat transfer gold allows cracks to be elegantly refined and visibly integrated into the design. This creates unique objects that tell their own story. The set is also ideal for traditional gilding on paper, canvas, or other surfaces. The included Kölner Signcoll ensures smooth application with a drying time of approximately 20 to 60 minutes, allowing sufficient time for careful work. For a final high-gloss finish, the gilded surface can be polished with the included Kölner Instacoll Tissue. All components of the set can also be reordered individually if required.
