About this deal

The size and extent of the cracking pattern depends on the thickness of application, and environmental conditions during drying and other factors. Review this information carefully and conduct testing before using this product on artwork or decorative finishes. How to use: The paste can be mixed with acrylic colour and then applied to the chosen surface or applied directly. Unless specified, offers and vouchers are not valid on products which are already discounted from RRP, gift vouchers, books and from the I LOVE ART range. The thicker the application, the more crackled the effect will be but allow for a longer drying time.

Its unique ratio of specific solids and binders allows for a "controlled failure" to occur and the result is its tendency to crack. Dries to an opaque, matte finish, with an absorbent surface suitable for acrylic paints and mediums. While it is possible to apply Crackle Paste onto a wide variety of surfaces, the extreme shrinking can warp flexible products like paper or canvas. Don't dilute this acrylic medium with water or try to speed up the drying time as this may result in less or no cracking.

If you’re wanting to use the paste on a smaller area - we recommend applying it directly to the area, allow it to dry, and then apply a thinned-out coat of acrylic paint to sink in to the cracks. Once dried, you can paint over with paint, such as our acrylics, oil paints or our H20 water mixable oils. We suggest you first avoid adding water to your paint and minimize heat and air flow in your painting environment. Golden Crackle Paste is a thick, opaque cracking material, designed to develop deep cracks as it cures.

Watercolour isn’t really ideal for crackle paste as the paper that you’re using wouldn’t be strong enough to hold the thick paste. For smaller cracks, apply a thin layer/coating of crackle to your surface and allow it to dry before any painting. The size and extent of the cracking pattern depends on the thickness of application and environmental conditions during drying.

Increasing film thickness will increase the tendency to crack and also the size of the cracks and platelets.
