It is usually the little bottles of acrylic paint like Delta. I think it might be because they have a higher water content because with the thicker type acrylics you have too add water to them if you want to get a crackle effect. I don't know why it happens over glue and not on other surfaces. -Cary On Apr 23, 2008, at 7:08 PM, Paul Fantini wrote: > Hi! > > I used a 50/50 mixture of white glue and carpentars glue for a > puppet head.
