Mont Marte Crackle Paste 250ml

• Ideal for a range of surfaces, including canvas, wood and polymer clay
• Creates texture and crackle effects
• Great for building surfaces
• Dried to a white, opaque finish
• Suitable for acrylic and oil paints

Directions:

• Apply a consistent, thin layer of crackle paste to your surface with a flat taklon brush and wait till dry before painting
• For more cracks, apply a thin coat of acrylic paint to surface first to allow paste to sit on a surface that moves underneath the paste (allowing for more cracks)
• Drying time 2-3hrs (may vary)

Handy Hints:

• For best results paint the crackle onto a smooth, glossy surface
• Not recommended for paper or cardboard
• Works better on large areas because the paste has more surface area to shrink back to and crackle
• For smaller crackle effect, apply a thin layer of crackle and wait till dry
• For larger crackle effect, apply a thin layer of PVA glue to the surface and wait at least 20-30mins before applying crackle paste
• An even undercoat of glossy acrylic is ideal for timber surfaces
• Note: If product is applied too quickly it can become ‘immovable’, (impacting the shrinking of the paste), stopping the cracks from properly forming
