I want to do a glass panel like they have had at letterhead meets. I tried using black fin gold back up paint then put on some gold leaf. When I went back to clean up the excess gold what I had screened started to wipe off also. What would be better to use for this?

I paint glass with best aviable alkyd enamel mixed with approx 15 % size. I have also, with good results(been up 2 years now) painted with latex, then covered the latex with thinned alkyd size. size will penetrate the latex and bind to the glass Latex is handy here cause it covers well, dries fast
