Good information and demo. I’ve been wanting to crackle surfaces. I like the one step brand best too – with more visible cracks.

Great tutorial. I have one step, but haven’t tried it yet. Will now, after seeing this!

Nice technique. I am wondering if any kind of coating, such as PYM II, is needed at the end.
