Crackle paste Liquitex
Liquitex Crackle Paste creates a structurally stable crackling effect on rigid surfaces. It can be used on its own and painted over once dry or mixed with acrylic color – using no more than 15% paint to 85% medium. Liquitex Crackle Paste dries to a hard, opaque finish while maintaining paint adhesion, durability and archival quality.
Use on rigid supports only. Apply paste evenly to surface with a palette knife and leave to dry for at least 24 hours before painting over it. Cracking will vary depending on how thickly you apply it – the effects will be more obvious on thicker applications but will take longer to dry. Recommended thickness for crackling effect is between 5 and 10 mm. Liquitex Crackle Paste is fully compatible with all other Liquitex products. Don’t dilute with water and force dry with a fan or heater as this may result in less or no cracking. Don’t try and slow the drying time by adding a slow drying medium as this will affect crackling effect.
