DecoArt Weathered Wood Medium American 8oz

Weathered Wood is a crackling medium which, when used with Americana Acrylics or Crafter's Acrylic, will achieve an aged, cracked, antiqued, or distressed wood finish on most hard craft surfaces.

Dries quickly. Once the crackling process is completed, no further cracks will appear, and the finish will not lift off after it is sealed. Can be brushed on to almost any surface that will hold acrylic color.

Can be antiqued and varnished.

Content: 8oz (236ml).

👉 How to apply:

Apply a coat of acrylic paint to your surface. After it dries, apply the crackle and let it dry. Then go over it with acrylic paint in a color that contrasts with your base. You will see the cracks appear almost instantly!

💡 Tips:

• For vertical crackles, run Weathered Wood across your surface in vertical strokes.
• For horizontal craquelure, run Weathered Wood across your surface in horizontal strokes.
• For irregular, pass the sponge, and move in all directions. 
• You can create large or small crackles, depending on your project. The bigger crackles you want to create, the thicker layer of material you need to apply. For very fine crackle, apply a minimal layer
