    Crackle Lacquer must be applied over a base of nitrocellulose lacquer or sealer such as 546-5006 Chemlack Sealer, 441-50XX Chemlack or 230-65XX White Chemlack.  This base may be tinted to desired color with 844 or 866 line tints.  (Color of base material will be color of cracks.)

  • General Information:

    Crackle Lacquer must be topcoated with clear nitrocellulose lacquer for protection. 

    Control the size of cracking with wet mils applied. The thicker the wet film of Crackle Lacquer the larger the cracks. 

    Allow Crackle Lacquer to dry a minimum of one hour.

    Always experiment with crackle system on a sample panel to insure desired aesthetic result as it is related to technique, before applying on job parts.

    Further effects can be added to system, i.e.:

    -        Glazing over Crackle Lacquer, streaking with china bristle brush (be sure to dry glaze or wipe stain well).

    -        Fly specking over Crackle Lacquer.
