Seeking Gold leaf Info or direction

Does anyone have any info about gold leaf? How to use, what kind to get, best places to purchase, differences between patent vs not patented, what it can be attached to. Or maybe a demo of using it. Thanks

@rayenendeid might be of help with this question.

I use leaf fairly often at work for picture frames, did you have specific questions?

I do! And thank you for getting back to me. I’m looking to try gold leaf on powder coat but I don’t really know anything about it or if that is possible but that’s just the direction I’m looking to problem solve in.
I understand there is an adhesive and then it’s about applying and smoothing out to put simply.
What I really want to know about where I can find good quality leaf and adhesive, maybe there is a specific brand that you have used or like. I don’t really understand the patent vs not patented leaf part so I don’t really know what type of leaf I should get. Can you offer any advice? Thank you

Here are the technical instructions from Rio on how to apply metal leaf:
