Question
as a kid in the 60's I remember collecting bottles and painting them with different colored paint that when dried gave a crakeling finish. I can not find this product anywhere. Everything now days is a long drawn out process. Do you know what this product was and is it still on the market anywhere?
I think you had to buy a special paint that had a crackle effect.
Perhaps "Michaels" or "Joanne's" would have something crafty that crackles when dry.
Personally, I don't know about it nor have I used it.
SORRY! I wish I could help more.
Try calling Michael's and asking them about it.
I have a feeling you will find something.
