We always suggest experimenting before working on your final pieces to make sure you can achieve the effect you’re after. If you’re wanting to create a larger crackle effect, then apply a thin layer of PVA glue to your surface and wait at least 20-30 minutes before applying the crackle.This is a highly variable product, and it should NOT be assumed that it will perform exactly the same each time the product is used. Be sure to apply an even undercoat of glossy acrylic to the wood and let it dry, before applying the crackle paste. We suggest you first avoid adding water to your paint and minimize heat and air flow in your painting environment. The primer has excellent adhesion to materials such as canvas, wood, polystyrene, plastic, glass or metals.
