Hi there. You can use water based paint before you put on the crackle. But once you add step 1 and step 2 of the crackle, you can no longer use anything water based at all. I'm going to leave you a safe link for the Pentart solvent based gloss varnish and the Pentart antique paste. I recommend both of these products. I did some experimenting and found out that the Pentart varnish is formulated to work with the fineline crackle. I used a different brand of varnish and it cracked over top of my fineline crackle, so it didn't look very good. For the best outcome you'll need to use the Pentart varnish.

What would we do without your invaluable information. You know I have so much trouble with crackling, even when I follow the directions. You’ve taken the guesswork out of the equation by showing the names of the products, how to prepare the surface, painting and which types to use, antiquing and various types of crackles. My favorite is the porcelain look. It’s so rich and antique looking. Can’t thank you enough for your help. I will keep this video forever as my Crackle Bible!

Hi there Gizmo my friend! I'm so glad to hear that you found this video valuable and helpful. There are so many crackle methods and each one of them has such a different end result. I thought I'd do a video explaining how to use each one and what you can expect to see on your project. I can remember being very confused at one time. I was using the classic crackle and couldn't figure out what I was doing wrong. What I wanted was the end result that the fineline crackle gives you. By the way, that is my all time favorite as well. I love how it looks like aged porcelain. I use that one A LOT! lol... Let me know if there are any other crafting techniques that you'd like me to do an in depth video on, like this one. I was thinking of doing one explaining exactly how to do the water method decoupage. Any interest in that? I think you said you were having problems with that one.

@@masoncreationsetc speaking of paper rolling; the other day, I had to sharpen my eyeliner pencil, and what to my surprise, but what came out was a little rolled piece of the wood that looked like a tiny Rose, and depending on the color of the stick, that color lines the very top of the Rose. Now the size of the rose depends on the size of the crayon that you’re using or the eyebrow or liner stick, and therefore would need a bigger hole to trim it, so the rose would be bigger. Does that sound crazy? I haven’t tried Dowel rods yet in those sharpeners, but that’s my next adventure. There may be occasions where a small flower would be appropriate instead of buying artificial ones in the store that cost money. I’m still trying to figure out how my crazy brain works, and how it always cost me more time and labor. I just recently learned, that my first grand-dog went “over the rainbow”Wednesday before Easter, an expression i’ve never heard of before, but thought was so beautiful, and that brought another thought into my crazy mind. Can you create a plaque for a dog that has gone “over the rainbow”? I hope that’s not too crazy challenging for you, but I have all the faith in the world that you’ll come up with something so beautiful and heartwarming. Our pets are just like our children, and she was a miniature pincher and quite a feisty little lady! I bought a rectangular wooden plaque in Walmart, but haven’t started anything yet. Hoping I can get more inspiration from you. Thanks!

I love using Pentart's 2 Part Fine Line Crackle Varnish, it gives craft projects a great vintage look. I've never used oil paint to highlight the cracks, but I do use eye shadow powder for the same effect, especially because eye shadow has mica powder in it. I also use Dixie Belle's 'Dirt' which is a pigment that's made for antiquing furniture, but it's also perfect for using over the Fine Line Crackle Varnish. I live in Melbourne, Australia BTW.

Hi Rita, I've never done a project like what you're describing, but if I were to do it, this is what I believe would work. I would do the crackle finish first and then paint over the crackle. The type of crackle that you want, you won't be able to put over your painting. It needs to go between two layers of paint. Paint your board a dark color, let it dry and then paint Folkart crackle medium and let dry. Then paint your contrasting color like a white or cream. It will start cracking as you are putting the paint on. After it dries, paint your picture. You could probably do some antiquing afterwards to make sure the cracks show where you painted your picture. Here's a video where I used that crackle technique. I didn't paint a picture over it though. I believe that this is what you're wanting to do.

Hi Jenn, It may need a little heat. Did you try a blow dryer for a few minutes? Sometimes the cracks are there, but they're hard to see. Heat will bring them out. Just a couple troubleshooting questions: Did you let component #1 dry completely before adding component # 2? Component #1 needs to turn complete clear before moving to the next component. Have you added any antiquing yet? Give it a try, the cracks may appear. Did you get Fineline crackle or Classic crackle? Each one will react differently to the type of antique you use. Fineline requires a solvent based antique, such as oil paint. Classic will need a water based antique. Let me know if you need any additional help. If it's cold and damp where you are, it may just need some heat, try the blow dryer. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to send me a message 😊💖

Hi Carol. If you're going to use the glue crackle method, do not water down the glue. Use it straight out of the container. Don't let the glue dry at all, paint your contrasting color right over the wet glue. This is only meant to be used between two layers of paint. It won't work over top of a decoupaged image. If you want cracks on your decoupaged image, you'll need to use Pentart Fineline Crackle. And then you can only use solvent based antiques and varnishes. I'll leave you some links for these products. I'm also going to leave you a link for a video where I used the Fineline crackle over a decoupaged image. This shows you step by step how to do it. Let me know if you have any questions at all.

Hi there, how can I crackle an already finished oil painting? Or at least give a thin crackle effect?

Hi there, I would say the best result would be the Pentart fineline crackle system. It will give you really fine delicate cracks. However, I'm not really positive how it will work over oil paints, as I've never tried it. Once you use that crackle system you cannot use any water based varnishes or antiques over top of it. Only solvent based sealers, in matte or glossy. You can use dark brown oil paint as your antiquing medium to accent your cracks. I'll leave you some links as well as a link to a video where I used this crackle system and used oil paint as my antiquing medium. Let me know how it turns out, and I'd love to see pictures. I'll leave you my email address in case you like to share your results with me. Let me know if you have any other questions.

I’ve been trying to do a crackle on my cupboards. I bought a white matte acrylic paint for the base. Then I put the crackle paint, let it dry. Then I put the top coat which is a dark grey acrylic, but it doesn’t crack. But when reverse the colours with white on the top it cracks beautifully. Totally confused 🤔

Hi Cheryl, that's really odd. Some of the crackle paints are a chemical reaction that makes them crack. My guess would be that there's something in the grey paint that prevents it from cracking. Try a different brand of paint. I would definitely get some small pieces of wood from Dollar Tree and do a bunch of test samples on those before experimenting on your cupboards. Good luck! I hope you can find something that will work. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to send me a message 😊💖

I'm trying to make a "waterfall" of lava and a "river" of lava. I think a nice red paint with black crackle paint on top will do the trick for the "river". Never did it before though. What should I buy? The cracks shown in this video don't look like hot lava... I heard good things about Citadel Technical: Mordant Earth. Are you familiar with that crackle paint?

Hi Melvin, That sounds really cool. I'd love to see pictures when you complete this project. I'll leave you my email address below, if you'd like to share. I've not used the two you named, but I'm going to leave you a couple of links for a some crackle that should do what you need. Either one should work well for you. But the first one you should be able to add a lot of swirling texture. 1. Ranger Crackle Texture paste- paint the background black and let dry, mix red paint with the crackle paste to put over top and let dry. As it dries the cracks will appear. . It will crack and the black will show through. This not only gives you cracks, but will add swirls of texture as well. 2. FolkArt one step crackle- paint background black and let dry, paint crackle medium and let dry, paint red and it will start cracking immediately.

I recently bought Pentart fine line 2 step crackle varnish and after a week my item is still tacky. I followed all the instructions so would be grateful for any advice you may have. Thank you

Hi Debra, I'm not sure why, I've never had that happen. Normally the fineline crackle turns out beautiful. I let step 2 dry for a few hours then use a blow dryer to deepen the cracks. Did you use antiquing afterwards to enhance the cracks? Was it water based? If so, that would cause a problem. It needs to be solvent based, which means, you would need to clean your brushes with paint thinner and not water. Also, you need to seal it afterwards with a solvent based clear varnish. Either paint on or spray on. Let me know your steps exactly and what products you used, so I can guide you 😊 Thanks for watching and sending me a message 💖😊

Hi, thank you so much for your reply. I used Pentart Liquid Patina to enhance the cracks - used a cloth to apply and rub off.

Hi Debra, That's solvent based so you're good there. Maybe that's what is staying sticky. I've never used Pentart Liquid Patina, but I spray all my projects with a clear varnish in either a gloss or matte. You may want to try that, it should get rid of the sticky feel. I would try it on a sample something first. Do all the same steps and then try the spray varnish and see what happens. I hate trying something new on my actual project, just in case. I'll leave you links for the two that I use. Please let me know how it turns out. 😊 Triple thick glaze (Amazon): amzn.to/3DSbyPe Matte spray sealer (Amazon): amzn.to/3j19tGm

Thank you so much for your help. I haven't sealed it yet as I was waiting for the stickiness to go, but I'll follow your advice and see if that works. Many thanks for your help. I've subscribed and enjoyed watching your other lovely videos. Love from the UK 🇬🇧🇺🇲

I would like instructions to crackle wood sewing machine drawer I want the old wood to show through the crackle . I have school glue to crackle with

@masoncreationsetc

Hi Debbie Unless you paint the wood sewing machine drawer, you won't get a very good crackle effect. In order to crackle properly there needs to be 3 layers. Paint, crackle and then paint again. I just did a quick test to see if I could get it to work on bare wood. The Folkart crackle didn't crack at all. The Elmer's school glue gave minimal cracks that were very tiny. My suggestion would be to paint the drawer, when dry add the Elmer's glue. While the glue is still wet, add your contrasting color. Definitely do this section at a time. It dries fast and will be hard to do it all at once. The Folkart Crackle Medium will produce a more even crackle when doing a large area. For this one paint the drawer, when dry add the crackle medium and let that dry. Then add your contrasting paint color. Work this one in sections as well. Let me know if you have any other questions. You may want to buy some wood blanks from the dollar store to experiment on. Don't experiment on your drawer, wait until you know exactly what the plan is.

I was going to try the napkin method with this adorable pumpkin id taken from a get together. I very specifically told my miscreant bf that i was saving it for a specific special project and hung it carefully on the side of the fridge thats away from the rest of the kitchen. The Arsehole used it and threw it in the trash. The ONLY way to do thàt is to specifically do it on purpose. Theres a stack of napkin in a drawer right where the fridge opens.

Do you prime first

Hi there, It depends on what I'm painting. If I'm working on a canvas I always prime with Gesso before painting. If working on glass, ceramic, plastic or any shiny surface I prime with Polyvine multi surface lacquer. It will stop any chipping, peeling or scratching. It's an amazing product. I'll leave you a link below.
