How do I crackle my wall or piece of furniture using one color?
 
  When crackling with one color, brush the Crackle Medium over the basepainted surface. When it's dry there should be a sheen on the surface. If any area appears dull, apply another coat of Crackle Medium.
 
  Brush on an even, smooth coat of waterbase varnish, working quickly. Cracks will form. Do not overbrush - this will make the cracks disappear. Let dry 24-36 hours.
 

To make cracks show, you will need to mix an antiquing glaze. Mix Decorator Glaze with Neutral Glaze to form a tinted glaze for antiquing. Rub antiquing in the cracks with a damp cellulose sponge. Let dry.
