Instructions for Use and Application
Apply Component 1 with a soft brush and let it dry completely. Then apply Component 2 and let it dry for several hours or overnight (you can speed up the process with a hair dryer or by placing it near a heat source. Be careful not to hold it too close, so the material does not burn). Once dry, highlight the cracks with patinas, pigment pastes, or metallic pigments. If needed, seal with gloss varnish to preserve the surface’s gloss.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create and highlight the cracks? Once Component 2 is completely dry, rub antique-effect mediums, pigment pastes, or metallic pigments in a contrasting color into the cracks.
Which finish varnish should I use for protection? Gloss varnish is recommended because matte varnish would dull Component 2’s natural gloss.
