A foundation of Watercolor Ground gives virtually any surface a new texture similar to cold-press watercolor paper. You can achieve the same distinctive, transparent qualities of watercolor on wood, metal, ceramic, plastic, glass, stone, plaster and more.
 
This luminous gold is semi-transparent, so the original surface color and/or pattern will slightly show through the sheen. For a deeper gold, apply 2 to 3 thin coats. Add a glaze of color when painting on top with transparent and semi-transparent watercolors. This ground also works well for adding special iridescent effects to specific areas you want to highlight.
