I do not let it dry for the recommend hour as stated on the bottle. For small crinkle use thin layer and dry time 10-15 mins. For large crackle, I use thicker coat and let dry 20-30 mi a.
*******
I tired using this several times thinking that I must have not used it correctly (i.e. didn't use enough crackle medium, didn't use enough top coat, used too much top coat). I read and re-read the directions and followed them. I even applied my top coat with an airbrush to avoid any possible damage to the crackle medium. It just didn't work. I'm really disappointed. It was a waste of time and acrylic paints.
