Create interesting textures and effects in your paintings with our crackle paste. This opaque medium can be used on a range of surfaces and is great for both acrylic and oil paints.

Ideal for a range of surfaces including canvas, wood and polymer clay. Creates texture and crackle effects. Great for building surfaces. Dried to a white, opaque finish. Suitable for acrylic and oil paints.

Directions:

Apply a consistent, thin layer of crackle paste to your surface with a flat taklon brush and wait till dry before painting. For more cracks, apply a thin coat of acrylic paint to surface first to allow paste to sit on a surface that moves underneath the paste (allowing for more cracks)

Drying time 2-3hrs (may vary).

Handy Hints:

For best results paint the crackle onto a smooth, glossy surface.

Works better on large areas because the paste has more surface area to shrink back to and crackle.

For smaller crackle effect, apply a thin layer of crackle and wait till dry.

For larger crackle effect, apply a thin layer of PVA glue to the surface and wait at least 20-30mins before applying crackle paste.

An even undercoat of glossy acrylic is ideal for timber surfaces.

Note: If product is applied too quickly it can become 'immovable', (impacting the shrinking of the paste), stopping the cracks from properly forming.
