You are hilarious ! Love this video

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍thanks!!

[@sandiebennett5310]

I'm SO GLAD I came back to watch this, did a crackle but I didn't put enough crackle med on, I thought j was gonna have to strip all the paint off. But nope, it really does wash right off with warm water.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍

[@deannazynn7670]

Lol, right before I found this video, I did the same exact thing with putting too much acrylic on top. I didn't try again as I thought it was a bust. Great job, I love this and will try again.

[@jobillups]

That really turned out great! Crackle is one of my favorite techniques.The water slides are perfect on this!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thank you!!😉👍

[@amoriewalker1939]

This was amazing 🤣😂

[@craftykarla6441]

This is gonna be my next tumbler! I love all your work! Thanks for sharing!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

It's kinda crazy watching it crack right before your eyes!...I felt like a magician, lol

[@Braannxo]

You: “Wow this thing is really long” Me: at 4 am on a random Saturday: “that’s what she said” 🤣🤣🤣

[@tracyphillips2956]

I just rewatched this video and you helped save my tumbler ❤️ THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Hallelujah!!🙌🏼

[@lolitascreations]

Amazing tutorial as usual. Very entertaining as well 💗😁💗

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thank you!🙌🏼

[@jillmcc7946]

I ❤️ the reveal!! And the Homer Simpson nod

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

LOL!🤣

[@kimberlygreene3791]

I love all your videos. This was no exception. It was a bit difficult to see how the sparkly in the resin turned out. Your fancy camera work was quick. As always, thanks for sharing!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thanks! The bling came out good but I think I like it better when I sprinkle on from above when I am doing the resin.

[@vonellevanzant237]

Gorgeous! I've been working with this brand of Crackle. Mine looked like your first one. I finally found some instructions at the very bottom of the bottle that says use a thin coat. Maybe that matters. I really don't know. I also got HUGE breaks, not just lines. Anyway, thank you for this tutorial. I'm trying to get my courage up to try again!

[@pattiroche290]

Love this! Im gonna jump in!!

[@PENFOLD1962]

Yes... "You've Cracked it Bro"!

[@cyndiphone6004]

Love the cup!!!

[@theresapillow5582]

It works after years. LOL I used it on a book cover, never added the top coat until years later and it crackled ;)

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Holy moly, awesome!!

[@jenniferbrier8048]

I wish I saw this video a week ago and noted that you have the caps of your epoxy labeled!! I accidentally reversed the caps on my bottles and they cured!!! 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️. Lesson learned!!!!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😱😅

[@teririvera]

That came out nice 👍🏼

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍thanks!

[@wandaharden438]

Beautiful

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thank you

[@tarayardley7074]

My husband and I love watching your videos. Thanks for making us laugh. What kind of epoxy do you prefer?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Alumilite Amazing Clear Cast, and you can use my discount code: Duncan10 👍

[@Laurennnnnn13]

Yes! I've been waiting for this video! I still feel special to get a sneaky peak. I just love watching can't wait to have a tumblr to call my own! I'm excited! You're so funny. I love the reveal with the music makes it fun. Loving this crackle. Looks aged with it. I think it's better you didn't do resin before the water slides because the look aged like they're crackled. I like the texture it gives. Can't wait to see the next video!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍Thank you

[@Mendingheartshomestead]

I definitely like the reveals!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Meee tooo!!!!🙌🏼 Thanks for watching!!

[@jondwoods4742]

Mister! do you have a tip to make a transparent crackle? Or a guess what I can add on top instead of paint? Great video great crackle great singing! Bless

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

🤔not sure

[@lindsayslovelycreations320]

Would spray paint work if you used it for the white part? Just curious. This cup is so pretty! I just bought some crackle a couple weeks ago, def need to try it already

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

no, i did some tests because I wanted to use spray paint

[@lindsayslovelycreations320]

Darn. That's ok. Thank you for your help

[@xoxomh1]

The perfect tutorial! ❤️

[@katherinewigginton558]

This is gorgeous!!! Your videos are so funny! Subscribed 👍 Im not sure what it is but your voice reminds me of john c reily

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thanks! I'll have to look him up

[@nancyjette7]

Did you put the clear cost between the base coat and crackle or the white paint and the waterslide?

[@teamredwaltz6249]

Do you have to use white acrylic paint or can you use other colors

[@julietaylor114]

Did you base paint the cup with spray paint

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I did

[@lynettebreaux2845]

You should use holographic embossing powder in your resin the sparkles will show a little better kind of like twinkling stars

[@maribelhartman4600]

I love it!!! You let the white paint to dry for how long before sealing it with clear coat? How many coats do you put? After placing the water slide do you seal it with clear coat as well? TIA.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I waited until i was sure it was fully dry,, maybe an hour or two. Sealed it with 4 coats. I do seal again after the waterslide

[@marymurray3500]

Professional opinion!! I want to make a tree bark one. So spray paint the tumbler dark green...crackle paint then alcohol inks for depth. Do I need to seal the white paint before the alcohol inks or should it be ok?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

You definitely have to seal it, water or "wetness" could potentially reactivate the crackle medium and mess it up, essentially if you are applying the alcohol inks with a brush

[@tanyas4boys]

Where did you get the flower prints from?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

They are available on my website under "digital downloads"

[@heidiewing6566]

The reveal..the best. I didn't see you sparkle glitter at the end. But, I did like your end tumbler :)

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

It was overcast when I was filming, I wish the sun had been out and maybe it would have showed

[@manda1432]

This looks much easier than the elmers glue method.. I want to try this out for my next creation, but I have a question.. do you think I’d be able to do a glitter peek a boo with the crackle medium?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I know you can, a friend of mine has done it...just don't paint the Crackle Medium on the areas that you want to be peekaboo

[@RobbieHuff84]

Do you know how to make bigger cracks to really see what's underneath?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

It may have to do with either the amount of crackel medium, or the amount of paint.....or a combination. I would have to do some experimenting if i was looking to control for a specific outcome.

[@mariapoehls872]

I love this !! Now did you mix your part A & B for epoxy in one cup (which I think would be easier) ? I wonder because I thought I heard not to do that.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

i mix both in same cup

[@tlccraftsdiys4158]

you are so funny you make me lol all the time

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Just doin muh job ma'am😉🤣

[@tlccraftsdiys4158]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush :)

[@donnamay1150]

If you use brown paint, it may look like a tree trunk. You could add a heart with initials inside 😁 idk

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

WHOA!!!🤯 That is a fantastic idea!!

[@maribelhartman4600]

Brown paint on white ?!

[@sepidehshirazi]

How long do we need to paint after crackle? Right after crackle? Or when it is still wet?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I painted the crackle medium on and actually left it for 2 days because I forgot about it, lol, but I think ti answer your question, all preceding layers need to be fully dry before proceeding 👌😉

[@tonimlentner1255]

If you are wanting to add a little bling to your cup add Surface FX Reflections Style #279. It's like very fine glass. It's awesome if you want a faint bling, bling without being over the top.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Awesome, I'll have to look into that!

[@kellygallo1075]

Love this

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thank you

[@chuckr1927]

Thick crackle medium and thick topcoat = BIGGER more blocky cracks.

[@kaseyleet7218]

Been trying to do this, but my crackle medium just keeps beading up. Like oil & water. I thought at first it was because I used acrylic paint as a base, but tried it again. With a spray painted base and it was worse. Any ideas on what to do?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I used purple Rustoleum 2x spray paint base. It was glossy (because that was all I had), so I lightly sanded it to dull it up and give it a surface that it can adhere to. That could be a possible problem...or, maybe your crackle medium is old🤷🏻‍♂️. Were you using the same kind I was?

[@kaseyleet7218]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush ... yup same kind. I didn't sand though. I'll try that.

[@kaseyleet7218]

Sanding made all the difference! Thank you!!!!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

That's what I like to hear!!😉👍 You should send me a picture to my Instagram or Facebook

[@swccbakersfieldca2076]

Wow yet another great and slight ..... very funny video........ love yur work. Now send me a tumbler .... I told you I would bug you. Be blessed and yupper you will hit that Hundo subs. soon . Be blessed.

[@nancycraig4672]

You probably don’t know what kind of paint brush you used do you ? Was it made of nylon ? I swear the easiest tumbler techniques are so difficult for me . I just had to wash my tumbler off for the second time . Either use too much paint and it drips on my Turner , or not enough and it clumps up. I swear I was lightly brushing it on too .

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Yeah that stuff is finicky. I'm not sure what the brush is made of, it probably came in a pack from Walmart. It is the same brush I use for my Tack-It also.

[@ZephyMills]

I am curious what would have happened if you had used a sponge and dabbed it on

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Hummm, cool idea!

[@nancycraig4672]

I have a question !!!! Did you seal the tumbler before you did the water slide ?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Yes I did 👍 .... I just went back and watched because I was going to give you a time stamp, but I must have edited that part out. Sorry, but yes, I put at least 3 coats of sealer before waterslide because water washes off the crackle stuff

[@nancycraig4672]

Duncan Custom Airbrush ok that’s what I was wondering , why the crackle didn’t wash off ! Thanks so much !

[@marie-franceblondeau4915]

WOW

[@dianebeland3290]

I tried drying mine with a fan and I got no crackles.

[@pharaohzhoundz]

😎

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍

[@driaalove9968]

It’s weird how I probably would’ve added the paint first then crackle on top of the paint. See they need to add “destructions”,I mean instructions on the bottle. 🤣

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Yeah for realz!!

[@AaronPatrick11]

I've watched so many of these videos, and informationaly, there great and I love it. But sometimes, dam it's painful listening to the commentary. WITH THA SAID, you're full of character and im sure an interesting person as I feel I am as well. So change... no way, but sometimes I feel like I'm skipping over a bunch of the videos to get to what I want to learn from it with all of the "extra" stuff. But I see you've got a ton of followers and people love it. But the video could probably be cut in half. Yet again, with that being said, I do love the videos and you're really good at what you do. Guess this is just my personal opinion and I like to express it. And of uou changed the way you make your content, maybe it wouldn't be so successful 🤷‍♂️. But thanks for some really great information man. 👍
