Modern Masters Decorative Painter's Water-Based Crackle Black Quart

Create a unique, antique look on your surfaces with Modern Masters Decorative Painter's Water-Based Crackle in Black. This clear, water-based medium is designed to offer a consistent crack effect that works reliably. By applying this medium between two layers of latex paint, it causes the top color to crack, revealing glimpses of the base color underneath. For dramatic, shimmering cracks, you can use Metallic Paint Collection colors as a base coat. This quart-sized bottle provides a coverage of 80 to 100 square feet per quart and features a flash point greater than 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
