Hello, I am looking for a traditional oil gilding mordant recipe which I could make myself. I would like to use gold leaf over oil paints but I don’t want to use modern toxic oil sizes. According to articles I’ve found, oil size traditionally consisted of linseed oil, resins and a drying agent. Could I possibly make a size with venice turpentine resin or another type of resin? Do there exist recipes that are nontoxic for oil sizes?
Thanks so much for your help
