Learn how to use these 3 different crackle mediums in your art work. Each crackle effect offers unique properties that cater to various surfaces and paints. Below are the products I used and the summary of qualities for each medium.
Golden Crackle Paste: Light fluffy white and holds good peaks: Applies best with trowel or palette knife: Dries opaque white in 24hrs: Best on rigid substrates like gesso board: Can be drawn or painted on.
Kroma Crackle: Thick yellow gel that color can be added to: Dries milky white in 3 days or more with heavy applications: Works on flexible surfaces like stretched canvas, paper or cloth: Can be painted over after.
Jo Sonja's: Hazy low viscosity gel: Can be applied with a brush: Dries clear in hours: Best on rigid substrates: Dries to a slick surface good for antiquing washes:

Thank you. Exactly the information I needed to experiment with crackle on my mask making.
Thank you for this! Just what I was looking for, I’m a kustom painter, mainly motorbikes
Love this video, thank you! 😊. Where can I find the Jo Sonja medium? Does it only come in a 2 pack (dickblick)? Seeing another bottle also that looks different… is one a newer label?

Thank you! They do have a new label so that is why things look a lil different, the new label has a red spiral shell in center. I am uncertain what the two pack is. Looks like they are both crackle but with different languages on labels. Might be their way of getting rid of the old labels, IDK. I get mine from my local art store Preston Arts Center. After a google search, looks like it is available on all the major online sellers. I always like to hit up the local art stores tho. If they don't have it they can most certainly get it for ya:)
Good presentation'.. I want a crackle paste for O scale roads on an O scale model train layout. Pasted on Foamboard...What would you recommend? Thanks😊

Either crackle paste or kroma crackle will be your best choice, the Jo Sonja is way too glossy. Crackle paste has a porous texture when dry, that after being painted would look very much like a paved road. Kroma on the other hand, would be great for dried up dirt road effects. Hope this helps!
