The precautions for painting gold on Buddha statues are as follows:

1.The painting of the Buddha statue must be approved or guided by the presiding officer of the temple, and the appearance of the Buddha statue cannot be changed at will.

2.Before painting gold, it is necessary to clean the surface of the Buddha statue to ensure that the surface of the Buddha statue is dry, dust-free, grease and other impurities.

3.Use professional gold drawing tools, such as brushes, brushes, canvases, etc., and do not use other tools instead.

4.Attention and speed are required when drawing gold, and excessive force or speed is required to avoid uneven gold drawing or gold dropping due to excessive force or speed.

5.After the gold painting is completed, it is necessary to wait for the surface of the Buddha statue to dry completely before carrying out subsequent care and maintenance.

6.During the gold painting process, you should maintain concentration and respect, and avoid bad behaviors such as smoking and snacking in front of Buddha statues.

7.After the gilding is completed, it needs to be reported to the monks or relevant personnel in the temple to ensure the safety and protection of the Buddha statue.

It should be noted that Buddha statue gold painting is a professional Buddhist craft, which needs to be operated by professional technicians, and non-professionals should not try it lightly. At the same time, people who have a strong interest in and respect for Buddhist culture and traditional art can learn and appreciate it on the basis of understanding Buddhist culture and traditional art.

As long as the Buddha statue is painted with gold, it is good to stop evil and not only good, and it will not bring disaster to people. He, like the sun, always gives light and warmth, and he does not bring dark clouds.

What we call good and bad offerings is just that there is no benefit if the offering is not good, and there is benefit if the offering is good. As long as we can do it with sincerity, the Buddha will not blame you. We try to be as respectful as possible, so that we can gain greater good.

There's a small interest and a big one, isn't it? Buddha is not like a layman.

If you don't provide for me well, you will recoil, and I will kill you and give you calamity. There is no such thing in Buddhism. In Buddhism, even the worst person we have to save him, and the Buddha will save him.

The correct solution is to gild the Buddha statue.

There are many ways to paste gold on Buddha statues, gilt them, and paint them with gold. The gilt contrast is suitable for large clay Buddha statues. In order to complement the golden color, the surface of the clay Buddha statue needs to be covered with a yellow background, then a layer of tung oil on the surface, (now there is also a varnish) and the gold leaf can be applied after a slight drying.

The heat of drying is very important and should be moderate. If it's too dry, the gold foil can't be pasted, and if it's too sticky, the gold foil is deformed and not neat. So it's an empirical job.

After gently pasting the gold leaf on the surface of the Buddha statue, press it little by little with a brush to make the gold leaf completely stick to the tung oil that is not completely dry, and when the surface of the Buddha statue is fully pasted, it is completely completed.

Traditional gilding techniques.

The traditional gilding technique method makes the handicraft gilding effect is not the same, mainly because the preparation of the glue used in their treatment of primer is not the same, and the glue commonly used now mainly includes hydrosol and toothpaste glue. Hydrosol is relatively easy to prepare and operate, but the effect of gold paste is generally not as good as that of toothpaste glue. The use of toothpaste glue solvent is directly on the surface of the gold object after the gold paste is not used as a protective paint, which truly reflects the primary color of the **, the disadvantage is that without collision, a little hard scraping can scrape off the surface of the gold foil.

In the past, the surface of the gold leaf was also coated with varnish to protect it, but it could not reflect the original color of the first grade.

High-strength gilding technique.

The high-strength gilding technique is to apply high-strength protective paint to the surface of the gold leaf, and there are often two types: high-gloss and matte. The handicrafts produced by this gold-pasting technique have a great relationship between the performance of friction resistance, scratch resistance, acid and alkali corrosion resistance and the quality of protective paint during the protection period. The transparency of the protective paint directly affects the effect of the first texture.

Buddhism was founded more than 3,000 years ago by Siddhartha Gautama, a prince of the Kapila Kingdom (in present-day Nepal) (see Buddha's Birthday). It is widely believed in the West that Buddhism originated in India, and India is in fact trying to create an image of a "Buddhist holy land". This has led many people to have the illusion that the Buddha was born in India, which has always been dissatisfied with the Nepalese people.
