Posh Chalk’s Crackling Enamel PCC012 combines two components in a perfect symphony to create 220 ml of pure creative potential. This unique system offers an extraordinary way to add a glossy, luxurious finish to your projects, complemented by the mesmerizing appeal of crackled textures. It’s designed not just to adorn but to transform, allowing each piece to stand out with an elegance that’s both ancient and modern. The application process itself is an adventure, inviting you to play with layers and depths to achieve finishes that range from subtly antiqued to dramatically weathered. Ideal for statement pieces or adding a touch of luxury to everyday items, this enamel elevates the craft of crackling to an art form.
Step 1. Apply the first component Crackling Gel to a non-absorbent base, preferably primed or painted. Apply generously. Leave to dry naturally, or dry gently with a mild heat source (hair dryer or heat gun).
Step 2. After the Crackling Gel has dried, apply the Crackling Enamel for a glossy, lacquered finish. The Enamel will begin to crack as it dries! The size of cracks depends on the thickness of the Enamel coat applied. The finish will be transparent, so in order to see the cracks, rub a colored paste or patina into the cracks and wipe back for a colorful, weathered appearance.
Before applying the enamel in step two, you may color the enamel with Posh Color Kicks
