Falcon459 Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Can someone explain the crackle painting process? Trying to do a green-over-yellow crackle frog. I'd also like to have yellow side spots with black centers... What materials & paints do I need? Any way to do this with Auto Air? Thanks, Falcon459 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishBooger Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hi What you are looking for is a crackle medium. If you go to a crafts store and ask for this they should have a bottle. On the crackle medium package i t will have directions/tips. The link below gives a step by step process on furniture.

KcDano Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 As the story goes, James Heddon attempted to speed up production by applying the colored paint over a semi-cured primered lure and then force dry the lure in a oven. Much to his surprise the short-cut produced the crackle effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
