    Looks like my daughter's jeans after eating anything with mustard.

    That is the yellowest gold I have ever seen. Looks like paint.

    If there was that much powdered gold stuck to his jeans how much would have been on his skin. the granules of powdered gold are so small to extract them from water the surface tension must be broken down
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    Totally fake. Plus places that work with gold will weigh you in and out to the tenths of grams. We have a precious coin Mint in Ottawa and a few people have pulled this off for a while. But they always get caught.

    Security recognized straight away there was something amiss when they saw there were no holes in the knees.

    Also the coating looks way too well distributed
