Refresh your gold lettering on gravestones

Many graveyards have "Cemetary Sundays" etc coming up. If the gold lettering on your headstone is looking tired, you can buy the gold leaf paint to refresh the letters. Sometimes people think you have to carefully paint into the grooves, thats not necessary. Saw a memorial guy doing it, he painted all over them, let it dry then used a blade to scrape it of, the effect was brilliant. Thought this may save people a few bob in these hard times.
