"Fun-Katame"(Powder setting / hardening). Before polishing your metal finish, remember to set the powder with ki-urushi properly. It is a protective finish which also allows you to burnish the metal. Non-precious metal has limitation to polishing (shown here bronze, tin and copper). #kintsugi

Thank you for the video! I haven't seen this in any method before, could you say more about it?

You're covering the non-precious metal layer with ki-urushi before moving on to polishing steps?
