This clip shows Rick demonstrating the "vertical sprayed" Angel Gild technique. Other than the steps required to initially mix the solutions and clean the glass, it shows the application of the gold and silver solutions in real time.
For this process, Rick applied four light mist coats of gold, followed by the final silver coat. He had experimented on small pieces to get his formula working. He found he needed to adjust the ratio of reducer to gold solution at our 6,300 ft. elevation.

Rick and Lola visited Jackson Hole, Wyoming in August of 1990. He brought out an Angel Gild Kit and demonstrated the technique for us using our primitive set up. He shows you can do the process with the kit, some distilled water, a few spray bottles, and a tray.
