I'm still learning .But , from what I've seen so far .Most people make a tool that is basicly velvet wraped around some cotton. You just press and twist. Some people make an attatchment for a drill. Look up dragginlines or gold leafing on youtube for some good examples. ;)

:biggrin: you can also buy it arts and crafts stores for 25-60 bux per book depending on the leaf!

the art store stuff is not made for the sun,washing and waxing, it will discolor and fall apart with time.
