It is proportioned according to the special requirements of gold foil. A quantitative proportion of silver, copper and other trace metal elements are added. These two steps are to satisfy the gold content needed. After more than ten processes of special processing, such as chemical wash, hammering, and gold foil cutting, it is golden in color, bright and soft, light as a feather, and thin as cicada's wings.

What is gold leaf process and how to do the gold leaf?
I. Clean up the work-piece
The surface of the work-piece must be smooth and flat before gold foil is applied, and kept dry, dust-free and free of wax or grease.
II. Gluing
Before applying glue, we need to use the type of glue (oil-based glue available gasoline, water-based glue with pure water) for dilution, to reach the required glue concentration after the glue. The glue layer can be brushed or sprayed evenly so that the glue is smooth. After sitting for some time, the foil can be pasted only after the glue is dry (touching with fingers, feeling sticky, but no finger pollution).
III. Pasting the foil
Putting the gold foil with paper lining on the base embryo which has been brushed with glue, and gently press and withdraw the paper with the help of a wool brush or cotton pad. After completing the foil sticking process, using a soft cloth or cotton ball to compact and flatten the gap on the foil surface, and making up the gold in time if there is any leakage.
IV. Gold sweeping
After the foil surface is compacted, to start to sweep the foil. Use a soft brush to gently sweep away the overlapping part in the direction of foil sticking to keep the foil surface flat and bright.
V. Applying protective Varnish
After 24 hours of gold foil application, spray a layer of protective varnish on the gold surface to make the gold foil less susceptible to scratches and wear. It is recommended to use foil protection oil, spray, or brush.

Thats a real gold?
Practice = Window-film with soapy water squeeze-squeegy
Air-Atmospheric suction-vacuum effect with surface-effect. Averaging pressure of brush-with- water(air-pressure on water-droplet on brush), on top of foil, rather than in-between.
After that is gold connectors and adaptors and ...
Research = how to test for real gold foil, conductivity, anti-oxidation, non-flameable, ...
If can stick to knife and brush to apply, what to use to stick to connector.? Positive-negative flowing-charge battery, electro of electro-plating no-static.?
