Traditional, lacquer based kintsugi, polishing gold

This video shows polishing keshifun gold with both mawata and a polishing tool.  It isn’t necessary to do so but on occasion I do to slightly change the look of the piece.  The piece is an ancient clay figure of a cow where I reconstrusted the horn and ear.
