Pentart "Classic" Two-Component Craquelure Set (2x50ml)

Two-component crackle varnish "Classic" This water-based varnish is used in aging techniques to create transparent, fine cracks on wood, veneer, MDF, cardboard, and glass surfaces. Component 1/2 is used in conjunction with Component 2/2 of the same series. After drying, the varnish becomes transparent and glossy.

This set of crackles can be used to create medium-sized classic cracks. The resulting cracked particles will resemble squares or rectangles, the size of which will depend on the thickness of the applied varnish layers.

Once dry, the craquelure becomes waterproof and therefore does not require additional varnish coating.
When using a two-component varnish, the first component must dry completely before applying the second component. Drying typically takes about half an hour, but in cold or humid weather, this time may be longer. The second component can be applied even on the second day.
Directions for use: Apply component 1/2 to the decorated surface and leave until completely dry (30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the thickness of the applied varnish layer). Then apply component 2/2, which will form cracks as it dries (the first cracks will appear after 5 minutes). Fill the cracks with pigment, patina, aging paste, or oil paints.
