(IC: professional)
3 Materials
Authentically recreate that wonderful antique look of aged paint with our easy-to-use Crackle Medium!
In this tutorial company co-founder, Rosanne will show you her tips on how to get the best results with our crackle medium. Please note that this product is suitable for indoor projects only, so don't use it on projects that you'd like to place outdoors.
Step 1) Pre-paint your piece
Step 2) Apply the Crackle Medium
Step 3) Apply your top coat
Tips: To produce larger, more prominent cracks apply the top coat in a thicker layer. (Keep in mind that thicker coats of paint will increase dry times.) For finer cracks, apply your top paint coat more thinly. For random and sporadic crackling, vary your brushstrokes and randomly brush the paint on.
