The thicker the layer, the larger the cracks. Drying can be accelerated with a hair dryer, as the temperature difference between the surface and the core activates the characteristic cracking. You can mix the paste with acrylic paints before applying it, or apply it over a colored surface to create an attractive contrast with the white edges of the cracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow can I create larger cracks?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe size of the cracks depends on the thickness of the applied layer.
