How to Use Golden Crackle Paste (Medium) | Cant Stop Art
Award winning painter, Fordee, explains how to use Golden Crackle Paste. We experiment with different thicknesses, painting before and after application while using Acrylic Ink and Acrylic Paint. We also use a stencil to create a honeycomb pattern which shows some cracking in the individual pieces.
The goal of this video and others in the step-by-step series it to teach techniques to new painters and give some seasoned painters some new tricks for their arsenal.

If I want a really small crackle finish, would I use a thin amount of paste?
A thin amount should lead to less cracks.
Do you seal these after.
Yes, you should seal all your artwork.
Thank you for this vid. I have been using Golden and then tried Liquitex. My god Liquitex was terrible. Golden is the way to go. I wonder why when you apply a large layer of surface area with Golden Crackle paste some brings up beautiful neat cracks and then part of it just looks like moulding paste. Has me baffled 😂
Great tutorial, you did make me laugh. Any idea if you can use oil paint with this stuff?
Hi Lauren, I don't think you can use acrylic medium with oil paints due to the differences in binders that they use. Have a great week!
Hi Lauren, I've always been told you can use oils on top of dried acrylics, which I've done many times myself, but not the reverse and they cannot be mixed
@Lauren - Yep! Just remember fat (oil-based products) over lean (water-based). Acrylic on top of anything oil based will not stay adhered.
Alcohol is a solvent, not a binder. In this instance, alcohol is the additive to your base pigment-binder mixture, in acrylic based formulas your binder is typically a polymer gel, and the additive is used to change the viscosity and volume. In water colors, your base is pigment plus gum arabic, with the gum arabic as the binder, and water is the additive. The chemistry involved has much to do with the interactions that take place between these, take, for instance, phosphorescent powder. Some of these powders are water resistant, and can be used with gum arabic as a water color. Others are not, and require a non-aqueous application to maintain its integrity as a pigment.
Good information, thanks!
These are acrylic inks, not alcohol ink 😊. Great video, thanks for the time and expense doing this experiment. Golden products are really expensive so I really appreciate this video.
@@debraryan5744 Yes, you are correct, thank you. And no worries... thanks for watching. :)
Acrylic ink is diluted with water. Alcohol ink is diluted with 91% Isopropyl alcohol (70% is not as effective). I would like to suggest that you use darker colors in your videos so that it shows up better on camera. It is difficult to see the cracks as you, the demonstrator see them in person. It is most helpful if you know your products before demonstrating them. Folks want to learn from you. Thanks for taking time to publish your videos.
Thank you for the info and suggestion.
You had to wait 3 days for those small barely noticeable cracks???I love Golden and I bought not knowing this but this stuff sucks compared to other brands.
Indeed, which is true for many mediums from my experience. Experimentation and CZcams are always a good start. Crackle isn't in my normal bag of tricks, but depending on the project I have used it. I've recently experimented with White Glue on glass to create a crackle effect, which was interesting.
I tried the golden crackle and it did nothing so I bought the folk art brand and it worked right away cracking.
@@bethdelmonte-catanese6925 Good deal, I wonder why you didn't experience any cracks. How thick did you lay it on when you used the Golden one? Wonder if it could be because it was from a bad batch?
