Jdeee Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Looks like black/silver crackle paint with transparent blue over the top. Crackle paint is available at large hardware stores, just ask someone in the paint dept. Edited February 8, 2014 by Jdeee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayburnGuy Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 Check out youtube or do a web search for crackle paint. They have several videos describing the process using different mediums. I use Elmers Glue thinned with water. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodieb8 Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 put base color on. let dry. apply crackle medium, dry time 45-1 hour ..apply color coat. heat will expand crackle. put dots/artwork over. apply coats of epoxy. let dry. we have been doing crackles on musky lures forever that way.... years back crackle was lacquer based but voc compliance has changed painting.

seanmarty93 Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 This is a pretty interesting how to that may be worth trying for a very similar effect with regular paints: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanmarty93 Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Hmmm.... I copied and pasted youtube link and it wont show up after i hit post button. Anyway, if you youtube search "airbrush marble effect" there is a short video by airbrush tricks. Basically he lays a base coat, then sprays the color he wants to have the marble or crackled effect. Next, while paint is wet, he lays wrinkled plastic cling wrap over the paint then simply pulls it away. It leaves a pretty cool looking crackled effect. Check it out and let me know what you guys think. Thanks! Sean Edited March 17, 2014 by seanmarty93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
