Our Suggestion:

For metal leaf applications, considering the adhesive properties of metal leaf to water and oil, we strongly recommend applying baby powder before use. Additionally, to safeguard the bamboo blade from potential scratches during storage, wrapping it in a soft cloth is advisable. This precaution helps prevent any damage to the blade that might leave unwanted impressions on your delicate metal leaf creations.
