Formica 6812-99 Metallic Gilt Metal is a Deco Metal metal laminate that provides a metallic surfacing option for projects where a real metal look is required, so installers can match design intent with a consistent, factory-produced surface. The 48"x120" metal finish sheet size supports larger vertical runs or multiple smaller components from a single sheet, helping plan layouts and reduce seams in many commercial applications. This product is part of the 2024 Deco Metal Metal Laminate Collection Metallic series, which features patterns with artistically aged and patinated cross brushing; this distressed metallic effect supports designs that call for a weathered or timeworn appearance. The Metallic series is described as suitable for modern as well as traditional commercial environments, allowing it to work across different design programs within the same facility. The Metallic Gilt design ties into the expanded Rubbed Brass series, aligning with finishes that use brass tones.
This Formica laminate is specified as Grade 86 - .050" (1.3mm); this thickness gives fabricators a substantial metal layer that can be handled and bonded during fabrication without the delicacy of extremely thin foil. Grade 86 also identifies it within the Deco Metal system for coordination with other project documents and shop drawings. The product is described as a Deco Metal metal laminate made from polished, anodized, matte, brushed, mirror aluminum or copper sheet with a phenolic back, so the installer is working with a metal-faced laminate bonded to a structural backing rather than a bare metal sheet. The phenolic back is stated to prevent creasing and allow for improved adhesion to substrates, which supports more predictable bonding when laminating to properly prepared cores in vertical applications.
The 2024 Deco Metal Metal Laminate Collection positions Metallic Gilt within a Metallic series that is ideal for modern as well as traditional commercial environments, so it is suited to projects such as hospitality, retail, or office spaces where a metallic statement surface is desired. Its artistically aged and patinated cross brushing introduces controlled variation into the surface, which can help visually mask minor wear patterns over time in busy public areas compared with perfectly uniform finishes. The distressed metallic effect creates a more relaxed reflection pattern than a flat, mirror-like metal, which can be helpful where strong lighting or large glazed areas might otherwise cause harsh glare. Because it is a Deco Metal laminate with a phenolic back, it behaves like a laminate panel during bonding operations rather than thin raw metal, giving shops accustomed to laminate fabrication a familiar handling experience while still delivering a metal appearance.
Formica identifies this product as a Deco Metal metal laminate made from polished, anodized, matte, brushed, mirror aluminum or copper sheet with phenolic back, so each sheet combines a real metal face with a stable backing layer designed for bonding to substrates. The phenolic back is described as preventing creasing, which helps the sheet resist damage from localized pressure during transport or layup and supports clean, flat finished panels. The same phenolic back is also stated to allow for improved adhesion to substrates, giving fabricators a bonding surface engineered to work with common laminate adhesives in shop environments. The expanded Rubbed Brass series uses hand rubbing of real brass foil followed by soft burnishing to achieve its luster, which yields a finish that reads as glamorous yet subdued rather than highly specular; this character can support more controlled reflections along corridors or feature walls. Taken together, these details give installers a predictable, metal-faced laminate that is designed to integrate into a standard laminate workflow while delivering the specific Metallic Gilt aesthetic.
Formica 6812-99 Metallic Gilt Metal is a Deco Metal metal laminate with a metallic finish, so it serves as a decorative surfacing material rather than a structural panel.
The Metallic Gilt laminate is supplied as a 48"x120" metal finish sheet, allowing fabrication of taller vertical panels or multiple smaller components from a single sheet.
Grade 86 - .050" (1.3mm) indicates the laminate thickness and grade, giving fabricators a metal-faced sheet substantial enough for handling and bonding in typical laminate shop workflows.
The Deco Metal laminate uses a phenolic back that prevents creasing and allows for improved adhesion to substrates, supporting flatter finished panels and more predictable bonding.
The Metallic series is described as ideal for modern as well as traditional commercial environments, so it suits a range of commercial design programs using metallic surfaces.
The patterns use artistically aged and patinated cross brushing to produce a distressed metallic effect, giving the surface a timeworn, visually textured appearance rather than a flat, uniform metal look.
The Metallic Gilt design from Formica Corporation delivers a Deco Metal metal laminate that combines real metal appearance with a phenolic back engineered to prevent creasing and support improved adhesion to substrates. Its Grade 86 - .050" (1.3mm) construction supplies a metal-faced sheet that fits into laminate-oriented fabrication shops while providing the aged and patinated cross-brushed aesthetic defined for the 2024 Deco Metal Metal Laminate Collection. For vertical commercial applications that call for a distressed metallic effect within modern or traditional environments, this 48"x120" Metallic Gilt sheet offers a defined finish choice that aligns design intent with fabrication-friendly laminate behavior.
