With a view to make the wooden altars more attractive and effulgent, in the special wooden carvings in all the three deity altars gold plating was done. The process of gold plating on wood and marble surfaces is known as GOLD LEAFING. The gold foils are pasted on the surfaces. To protect the gold plated portions from any external wear and tear polyvinyl lamination is done. This lamination process will add to the life of the gold leafing.
