Gold lacquer for radiantly beautiful results
CosyColours Metallic Paint Gold

Add glamour to your rooms and paint your antique furniture in style with golden elements. But you can also turn modern furniture into an eye-catcher with gold effect varnish.

Gold paint for indoors and outdoors

With its excellent coverage, the water-based, low-odour CosyColours Metallic Gold Paint offers many decorative application options. Use this gold paint for accents or give a whole piece of furniture agold finish. Transform modern, standard furniture into unique pieces and apply decorative elements with leftover paint. The metallic paint dries quickly so that it is dust-dry after just 1 hour and can be painted over after approx. 7 hours. It can be easily combined with the chalk paints from our CosyColours collection. It is suitable for many surfaces, be it an old paint coat, wood, metal, or plastic, both indoors and outdoors.

Metallic varnish: perfect for furniture upcycling

To give old furniture or picture frames a gorgeous look, you can not only finish ornaments and edges in gold. If you want, you can also paint decorative elements such as vases or small pieces of furniture completely in gold!

Gloss-resistant & highly opaque

Gold has to shine and the metallic effect of this gold paint remains even when the colour has dried. Incidentally, like all varnishes in the CosyColours collection, the metallic varnish is particularly opaque. The beautiful gold tone does not yellow and retains its lustre for a long time.

Low odour & drip-free

Masking and covering the whole flat or painting it completely outside as the first step in varnishing? Nope - with our low-odour and splash-proof varnishes, you can paint your floors and furniture without spilling. That means "just paint".

Water-based & environmentally friendly

CosyColours Metallic Paint is water-based and low in VOCs. This gold paint is also manufactured in Germany.


CosyColours Metallic Paint Gold: Varnish for a shiny appearance

A beautiful golden metallic varnish was still missing from the CosyColours collection. Voilà, here it is and it will immediately make the hearts of all DIY fans beat faster!

Barrel painting is an ancient craft in which antique furniture or wooden sculptures are decorated with gold paint. The shabby chic trend has brought this technique back into fashion today. Ornaments on furniture or picture frames are "set" in colour, i.e. set off or gilded. Barrel painting is a profession in its own right and the colouring of furniture is actually a complicated process. With CosyColours gold paint, however, you can easily create this effect yourself.

The quick-drying, low-odour, acrylic-based metallic varnish makes it easy to gild wood, metal, plastic and even plaster and cement. It is also possible to paint an entire workpiece in gold colour. This means you can also make modern pieces of furniture an eye-catcher with effect paint in gold. CosyColours Metallic Paint can be used both indoors and outdoors. The metallic effect is at its best when the surface is uniformly coloured and has a good grip. We therefore recommend applying it on top of a primer or an existing coat of paint. How about first painting an old wrought-iron gate with a colour of your choice and then decorating it with some gold effect paint?

Quickly & easily create the perfect antique look with gold paint

As always when designing with colour, the work begins with a thorough cleaning of the surfaces to be painted. There must be no dust, dirt, wax or rust on the surface. Use the mild but extremely effective MissPompadour To Cleaner to prepare for painting. Undamaged old paint can simply be painted over with the Metallic Paint. However, if the varnish is peeling or the furniture has been treated with wax, you will need to sand it.

You should prime raw or bleeding wood before painting. MissPompadour To Bond & Block is suitable for this. If you want to apply the gold paint to plastic, stone or cement, we also recommend priming with To Bond & Block. It ensures that your gold paint adheres securely and mattes the surface. Any rust must be removed from metal, especially iron, and a metal primer must then be applied before applying To Bond & Block.

Now you can apply the effect paint. It must be stirred particularly well at the beginning so that the pigments are evenly distributed. Use either a brush or Roller to apply the varnish. Paint the varnish on very thinly, layer by layer, to achieve the best effect. You should apply at least 2 coats. Allow the gold varnish to dry for at least 7 hours after the first coat, then apply the second coat. If the painted surfaces will later be subjected to a lot of wear and tear, you can also stabilise them with MissPompadour To Seal.

Questions & Answers

What is effect varnish?

Effect paints are all varnishes whose appearance depends on the viewing angle. Metallic paint is also an effect paint, as the colour looks different depending on how the light falls on it. However, there are also effect paints that simulate a certain surface structure, such as opalescent gloss or surfaces with a hammered look.

How do I use effect varnish?

Effect paint must always be stirred particularly carefully so that the pigments are evenly distributed. Then pour some of the metallic varnish into a paint tray. We recommend that you always apply 2 coats, even if the gold paint covers the first time. This will make your colour layer thicker and more stable. It is important that the colour is allowed to dry for at least 7 hours between coats.

If you want to finish a piece of furniture in a shabby chic style after painting it with chalk varnish, wait until it has dried after the last coat. Then you can apply the gold varnish to edges and protrusions to achieve an authentic vintage look

What tools do I need to apply the varnish?

Of course, you need the right tools for a good work result. That's why we've put together a range of high-quality tools for you. From masking tape with natural rubber to our environmentally friendly paint trays without any plastic, to the varnish roller and our LittlePomp brushn - you'll find everything you need for easy implementation of your painting projects. :)
