Glue to use on Gold Leaf in a slump?
I am making a cabochon for a customer and I need to add some gold to my fuse. I only have regular gold leaf so I've been trying to put multiple layers on top of a 1mm clear glass base and then cover with clear frit. Applying the gold leaf dry made kind of a wad of gold leaf which was difficult to layer the frit over thickly. Unfortunately the majority of the gold leaf vaporizes when I do this.
I tried putting a dot of super glue down and layering the gold leaf over top of the glue and this made a nice flat base which allowed me to put more frit to cover the gold leaf. More of the gold leaf survived the full fuse but the super glue discolored the gold leaf and formed a small bubble.
Is there a glue that won't interact with the gold leaf?
