Hey Bob, On HDU signs, I just brush or spray (HVLP)the background with flat acrylics (house paint) the borders, black outline area and scrolls are rolled on. The Flower part is base painted with acrylic (house paint) then artist acrylics for the detail parts. This process is real quick and easy. I paint 1 coat of 1 shot on the any areas to be guilded, then oil size as normal.
