Liquitex Professional Crackle Paste 8oz
Fully compatible with all Liquitex products, Liquitex Professional Crackle Paste creates a crackled texture as it dries on rigid surfaces while drying to a hard, opaque finish. Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality.
Can be used on its own and painted over once dry. Can be mixed with acrylic color - using no more than 15% paint to 85% medium. Apply paste evenly to surface with a palette knife. Leave to dry for at least 24 hours before painting over. 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. When using on wood, seal with a base layer of fluid/gel medium and let dry before Crackle Paste application. Recommended thickness for crackling effect is between 5 and 10 mm.
Do not dilute with water. Do not force dry with a fan or heater as this may result in less or no cracking. Do not try and slow the drying time by adding a slow drying medium as this will affect crackling effect.
Use on rigid supports only.
