My brother bought debranded computer monitor and because it was debranded, the logo was removed and covered with permanent ink. So, he tried to remove the ink with acetone and apparently, it wiped off permanent ink AND silver plating from the monitor.
To “Ironmanize” his monitor, I used:
1. Martha Stewart Crafts ® Gilding Adhesive (it’s basically a glue)
2. Martha Stewart Crafts ® Gilding Sheets (Gold)
3. Paper masking tape
4. Sponge brushes
5. Martha Stewart Crafts ® Paints (Satin, Red)
Steps to Ironmanize your monitor:
1. Prepare first. Using the masking tape, cover where you don’t want any gilding excess to get into.
2. Apply Adhesive with sponge brush and make sure you get it done THIN AS POSSIBLE.
3. Wait till it becomes little sticky and clear.
4. Cover the surface with Gilding Sheets – lay them on the surface and remove its wax backing sheet.
5. Continue to add gilding sheets until entire surface is covered.
6. When finished, wait overnight so it dries COMPLETELY!
7. Using dry and clean sponge brush, brush over the surface to remove the excess giling.
8. Take off the masking tapes and decorate with paints.
