It dries to a hard, matte finish within 24 hours and can be used alone or mixed with up to 15% acrylic paint for customized effects. Ideal for wood, metal, and more, it requires even application with a palette knife and proper surface prep to achieve optimal results. ## Description How to use it - Use on rigid supports only. 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. Fully compatible with all Liquitex products How not to use it - Don't dilute with water. Don't 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 Review: efeito excelente na pintura - eu já havia experimentado o gel mate e resolver ver o efeito que este proporciona à pintura. Além do efeito ele auxilia na criação de uma película no papel poroso permitindo, depois de bem seco, escrever ou desenhar com tintas para caligrafia ou nanquim sem que elas se espalhem no papel. Review: Decepcionante - O produto só craquela bem, se utilizado bem espesso. No entanto, quando aplicado mais espesso, deposbee seco acaba por soltar da tela com facilidade. Decepção! Não compraria novamente. ## Features - Use on its own or mix with color to create a structurally stable crackle effect on rigid surfaces. - Creates a crackled texture as it dries on rigid surfaces.
