Chris, the wood looks great, do you add this product to the paint or do you put a coat of it on top of the paint? - Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captin Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Chris, the wood looks great, do you add this product to the paint or do you put a coat of it on top of the paint? - BillBill- I put the crackle paint down first then when the paint was dry i took the weathered wood distressed ink and vintage photo distressed ink and put it on top of the paint and it just filled in the cracks. i also sprayed a mist of water on the inks to blend them together.
