How to Use Posh Chalk Crackle

Posh Chalk Crackle creates beautifully weathered, vintage-inspired cracked finishes perfect for furniture, signs, frames, and artistic décor.

What You’ll Need

• Posh Chalk Crackle Medium
• Paint colors of your choice
• Paintbrushes
• Prepared project surface

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Paint Your Base Color

Apply your base paint color and allow it to dry fully.

This color will show through the cracks.

2. Apply Crackle Medium

Brush on an even layer of Posh Chalk Crackle Medium.

The thicker the layer, the larger the crackle effect.

3. Let It Become Tacky

Allow the crackle medium to dry until tacky but not fully dry.

4. Add Your Top Coat

Apply your top paint color using minimal brush strokes.

Avoid overworking the paint.

5. Watch the Crackle Appear

As the paint dries, beautiful aged cracks will begin to form naturally.

Helpful Tips 🌿

• Different paint thicknesses create different crackle sizes
