Why not just drill a square hole?

I can't. I'm too busy mixing spotted paint...

Honestly, a friend of mine DID make a spotted paint. It held together
during
storage, and sprayed or brushed on. He thought he would make a bunch of
money
on it but never did.
Auto trunk interiors have been or were painted with it for years. :-)

TDD

I think Krylon used to sell it but I couldn't find it. They also sell
"hammered" finish paint!

And "crackle" finish, though I haven't seen it for some time.

Wasn't crackle a two part finish?
A first coat with one paint and the second, the crackle coat, with
another paint.
The second coat dried faster than the first which caused it to crackle
when the first coat dried, or was it the opposite? I forgot.
