Default crackle accents and acrylic paints

Has anyone tried mixing a crackle medium into a bit of acrylic paint and painting any surface with it? Will the paint crackle?

I don't think it will crackle, it may have some texture.

I agree with iamvics- I think it needs to be layered between two layers of acrylic paint. Its something to do with them drying at different rates that makes the crackle happen. Be interesting to try out & see what you get tho, lol.
