Default Gold Leaf

I am a little confused. "good gold paint" as you refer is it paint or actually gold leaf? Gold Leaf is not cheap and process requires artist talent such as a sign person. If it is $300.00 for Gold Leaf that's not a bad price from quotes I'm hearing. Is Annie going to prep the sign before lettering and is that inlcuded in the $300.00? The sign should be stripped and re-stained and 3-5 coats of varnish, sand after last coat with very fine sandpaper, the letter, then a final coat of varnish over the sign.
